Clutch Adjustable??

Can you make adjustments on a double disk clutch on an 05 6spd?

Hydraulic clutch linkage, therefore self adjusting.

Is it slipping?

It is hard to get into gear and also shifting. The clutch has less then 500 miles on it. I upgraded to a dd sbc.

You can adjust the jam-nut on the pedal linkage but nothing after that. Also check to make sure the master cylinder is seated against the firewall, it only twists 1/4 turn into place on the bracket.

Did you replace your slave/master cylinder assembly when you put in your clutch. If I remember correctly SB recommends that if you have problems to change that if it has some miles behind it. May want to call them and inquire about it, they have been excellent to us when we call.

I called SBC and talked to Mancil. He told me to adjust the pedal out 1/2" and remove the slave cylinder and remove a piece to allow more engagement on the clutch.

My bad, it is a black shim in the housing. I am wiped out from some killer midnight shifts, sorry for not being descriptive on my last post.
