Put the new clutch in without getting another friction plate like an idiot. The friction plate has 2000 miles on it from the factory clutch and now I have a spec stage 3+. Will the clutch when it breaks in wear in the friction plate to it or should I have ford charge me another 600 to put a new friction disc on?

Because I don't want to have to spend the money if it will end up breaking in properly and be fine.

Let me know

If there were no major grooves in the surface and it wasn't warped you should be fine. Break it in easy.

There were marks but nothing substantial I used an indicator and there was only a couple low spots around .002-.004". What I noticed is when I put the pedal to the floor it semi riengages but slightly off the floor its fully disengaged which leads me to believe its getting to much throw. Im hoping after a couple hundred miles the clutch will wear in and be nice to me.

What do you think? We've bled it like 100 times to be sure there's no air

I was having a similar problem. My clutch pedal engaged at the very top of the pedal travel. And when I pushed it in all the way, i think I was over traveling the slave also. It started leaking after only a few hundred miles. So I installed the RAM clutch pedal adjuster. Now I can put the engagement where I like it. Closer to the floor. It works great. Where is yous engaging ?

My clutch is engaging around mid to 3/4 down and full down its slightly un engaged... its livable but I hope when the clutch settles in it stops I've never had this problem with a clutch before

HMMM, I dont know what would cause it to (if I get it) re engauge. It starts grabbing again ? Is that right. Strange.

Only thing I can think of, is at the very end of the travel, the pressure plate is at the stops , and it has more pressure then the throw out and is pushing back, or bleeding off internally ?

No clue. Im confused.

If I put the car in gear and push the clutch to the floor it stalls.
