I hope we get it right soon Josh Im losing sleep over this thing. Sucks because I done everything the "wrong" way with my spec (no shim, resurfaced flywheel lol) and it works great with almost 15k miles on it...

Yes, i love mine. got in broken in a couple days ago. I can definitely feel the difference between the Monster and the shitty centerforce I had in there. I will always go with Monster. They're prices are great for the product you get. And they'll give you great discounts if you ask. But, if you do order from them, tell 'em when they ship to make sure they don't have it shipped as a package that requires a signature. Unless you can be there all day waiting for the box, cause they ship through Fed Ex.

There is nothing wrong with you clutch... It's probably just not releasing all the way... Like I said, are the wheels rollin' when in idle at N on the Stands?

Somethings wrong with the release bearing. Just cause its new doesn't mean it not defective. Or by some chance the pressure plate was torque uneven and bent the release forks.

It was torqued in the correct manner, plus its actually got my old gm slave with the new spec bearing on it. Problem is that was the same noise it was making with the new throwout bearing/slave assembly. I don't understand how it'd never made any noise for the first 300 miles besides being hard to get in gear, now this happens... I have a advance slave in my car and it works fine.

Vos- the wheels aren't turning when it's in gear with the clutch pressed in or when it's just in neutral. I don't know what else it could be. And as far as ordering a Monster, I have to wait until Jason @ RPM contacts me and lets me know what they can do as far as exchanging the spec and letting me pay extra for the upgrade.
