Just recently did an engine swap on my 69 charger. It needed a new clutch as well. Purchased a new dual friction clutch when the new motor went in. Just recently put everything togather and pedal doesn't feel right. I've done more than a few of these over the years and something is not right.
Very stiff when pushing in the clutch and pedal doesn't go all the way to the floor. It goes approximately 3/4 of the distance, and definitely cant touch the floor board with pedal. Adjusted the clutch with 1in of free play and the car won't down shift. It now has very little free play and it down shifts now.
The spring under the dash was disconnected which I've done on everyone I've done. There are no problems with the linkage. I've crawled under the car and checked to see if I can spin the disc which it does. Called centerforce and they tell me to pull it and send it in. I just got done putting this thing together and really don't want to do that. Before I did... I'd figured I would reach out to the guys here to see if anyone had similar issues or advice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
