Holy Shit!!!!
I have felt the rings loosen a little and I opened it up in second and third.I had to short shift to keep the wheel down in both gears.Question-1st gear the tach shot to redline from 8 grand,how do I tell the difference between tire spin and clutch slippage?I don't want to take it to the track and find out it is the clutch,so what is the wear limit on the fictions and do they get measured wet or dry?Freddie Klies degreed the cams also and it drops off right befor the rev limiter.I got to admit it,I not use to the acceleration and it scared me some.WHOA!

generally tire slippage at the top of 3rd at WOT would result in the back end swinging out on you at least some.
clutch slippage would just allow the motor to shoot to redline instantly from otherwise normal accelleration. Could also be repeated in any higher gear. Make sure your clutch is adjusted properly!

I also had a problem with it not being able to start when the engine was hot,but if I crack the throttle a hair,it spins right over.
