clearly this has been slipping very badly and has fired the plate,spliiage is more than likely due to origional dimensions not being restored,

Did the clutch slip? 1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.

Its hard to tell form the photos but it doesn't look like the three towers have been machined to correct/set the clamping force ??? Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

look at the right hand lobe,?? Machining Marks?

look at the right hand lobe,?? Machining Marks? Possibly original machining.... Look at the second photo which shows just one tower close-up and you can't see any marks. That's the trouble with internet diagnosis - if you had it in your hand it would be easy :) EDIT - it's the top one in the first photo - I wonder if they are not machined equally or, the lack of load marks on the top tower (1st photo), maybe the bolt shouldered out without clamping up properly ???

There is also no chamfers on the holes in the lugs which would suggest they have been machined down but not re-drilled/counter bored. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

Oh hell yeah it slipped. Couldn't get over 30 mph without it slipping. Limped it to work and back and stripped it today. The dimensions on the posts are correct and the diaphragm spring lays flat but the quality of machining is SHITE.

When i think back now it was fucked before it was sold to me (by same reputable company). Full of score marks and had been over heating, that why it was remachined............badly. |

The quality of machining wouldn't cause it to slip if the tower/post/lug height is correct and hence the spring flat....

Did you drop a 10mm spanner down there? |

If it is the counterbores (lack of) causing the bolts to shoulder out, how have you seen the spring flat ??? Did you trial assemble it with different bolts when you checked the spring flatness ??? I trial assembled if using the same bolts as the final assembly. When i checked the post heights with the gauge i found a 15 thou difference across the 3. If the pressure plate wasn't running true the plate would only drive on a portion of the surface. LMAO @ NIC! couldn't see one mate! |

LMAO @ NIC! couldn't see one mate! what hights have you got for the bsackplate and the thickness for the flywheel the different hights on the backplate would make it judder on takeup but it wpould still sit flat once engaged.it may have more pressure at one point but still not the cause. carl |

Just thinking aloud at the moment..... Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

Had you got the slave cylinder/arm/stops adjusted correctly to let the thrust bearing actually fully release the clutch? Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."
