Does South Bend recommend dxd black billet flywheel ??

Is there another adjustment besides the clutch master rod? Please fill me if so

South bend makes the dxd black billet flywheel and I contacted joe at Zspeed and he verified all parts where compatible.

I am the one who installed it, I've done a ton of clutch jobs but this is my first to have an issue with. The car actually drives fine still and can even chirp 2nd but it doesn't seem strong enough to hold when lauching I'm thinking something is wrong with one of the products.

Did anybody esle buy a stage 2 daily south bend and it came with a exedy clutch disc?

Joe couldn't help you pinpoint the problem? I'm no expert by any means but maybe this DIY could help? I know there's an alignment tool for the clutch but I don't think that's your problem.

The alignment tool is to help you align the clutch plate and flywheel so the output shaft on the transmission will slide in apon installation.
