  1. Need help!! Mantic clutch issue.

    Hmmm! I wonder whether the culprit could be the clutch master cylinder unit attached to the clutch pedal assembly?
  2. Need help!! Mantic clutch issue.

    Hey Platinum 5.0: did you ever figure out what was causing the problem and get it resolved?

    Ok. Thanks.

    Could you please elaborate on why the 10-14 GT500 slave cylinder...? Thanks.
  5. Rear Diff, Pinion Gears. And what will hold.

    Whatsup62: Honestly I wouldn't know. Probably just overeacting for no good reason. I'll contact my shoppe about swapping the rear gears for the 4.10s. I miss the low end torque I had with the MT82 but unfortunately that transmission didn't last thanks to the RXT clutch I ran. Switched out that...
  6. Rear Diff, Pinion Gears. And what will hold.

    I have a similar problem. Just had installed a magnum xl with a 2.66 1st gear and my rear gears are 3.55. I have a whipple stage 2 Gen 3 generating at the wheels 720 horsepower and 551 lbs ft torque. Sluggish off the line due to the tall gearing. Should I go with a 4.10 rear gear setup at the...
  7. Installed a Tremec Magnum XL in my S550

    Hey db252: thanks for the feedback and insight; I definitely don't take it as an insult but rather as a basis for asking the shoppe owner his rationale for recommending the transmission gear ratio he did. On the invoice he noted that a re-tune is recommended after the break-in period of the...
  8. Installed a Tremec Magnum XL in my S550

    Hey db252: did you have your tune re-adjusted after the clutch break-in period? My shoppe has recommended a re-tune after I break in my mantic clutch (sprung hub cerametallic). I have a whipple stage 2 making 720 rwhp and 555 ft. lbs. torque. Last summer the shoppe initially tuned it using HP...
  9. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    Update on the situation with the mantic unit: I took my car to a Ford dealership last Tuesday to have them diagnose what could be causing the shifter to be stuck in gear (clutch not to disengage). They contacted me this morning and said that the tech drained the transmission fluid and found...
  10. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    Hey Platinum 5.0: did Mantic resolve the issue for you?
  11. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    It's a damn shame. You're going to ride it out until...?
  12. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    As a follow up regarding my mantic clutch, I'm now experiencing the same issues as I did with the McLeod RXT. I just don't understand why we are having so many problems with these so called high performance aftermarket clutches? It should be a straightforward process of installing these units...
  13. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    I'm sorry to here this. I hope Mantic resolves the issue. What I don't understand is that why isn't there a quality control system in place to test these units before they are shipped to customers? These clutches are very expensive and folks expect, which they have a right to, that these units...
  14. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    Yep. I bought a mantic cerametallic twin disk clutch which the shoppe will install tomorrow. I like the fact that the mantic is sprung hub in design which will absorb much of the shock from the engine torque rather than pass it on to the drivetrain. The MT-82 is a relatively delicate...

  17. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    Very true. When I reported the problem to the shoppe that installed it they suspected that something was wrong with the clutch but didn't have the capability to diagnose it. McLeod should have in place a quality control system that every single clutch unit must pass through before it leaves the...
  18. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    I spoke with McLeod yesterday regarding the status of my rxt clutch I sent back to them in October to diagnose. They told me that the pressure plate, more specifically the fingers thereon, was not within spec. The out of spec fingers was preventing the throwout bearing from applying enough...

    It doesn't occur when the car is off.
  20. Shifter sticking in gear at 0 mph

    Hey Platinum 5.0: how did it go with beach bleeding the throwout bearing?
