Stop and go driving for 250 miles then get on it if it slips then drive another 50 miles and try again. Good luck.

Like he said. Thats what I did. Then after about 260miles I put it in second and put it on the floor and dumped the clutch and lit up both 33" BFG M/T's with 3.54's with no prob. Then a few hard launches and it's never sliped once. This was after the first 18miles I put on it I had to take our 22ft goosneck trailer to work and its not light. That had me crossing my fingers becous it was the very first 18miles on the new clutch and new trans. I was very easy on it for the first 150-200 miles and then started driving a little harder but not much. The peddle is lighter than stock and it is not grabby at all. It had better work great for what a MU-13-1.25 Con FE 13" conversion 550hp/1100tq rated clutch cost. I realy like the roler input bearing.
