Personally, I would never buy anything with a 'stage' number as a selling point. Stick with proven names like ACT or Southbend via TMZ. Who recommended this kit?

Tuner, he said he used it plenty of times And never had a problem but maybe I’m the lucky one that got a bad one

Your flywheel looks recently machined. Did you provide your machinist the step height and did they measure the step for you?
A local Napa shop f'd mine up by not measuring and I failed to call them out on it before leaving the shop. I shouldn't have blindly trusted their work.
Here's a good article if you are in doubt:

They measure for me, but I still don’t understand it drove and shifted perfectly. And now it won’t go into gear when the car is on

They happened to me many years ago from a respected machine shop. I took it back and asked him to measure the step in front of me and he was PISSED . It was off quite a bit and I made him fix it right there. He kept telling me that the height doesn't matter .

So it drove perfectly and you had the flywheel machined and changed the clutch and now it's no good?

What was the step height after machining?

Isn't Spec a proven name?

They very well could be but it's just me? I've never thought of them myself when thinking about a clutch setup.

Ive had 2 Spec clutches. First one was great. Very stock-feeling pedal pressure. 2nd one failed prematurely..blew 2 springs out of it without much abuse and not close to the 400hp limit for the stage 2. But overall, I liked it
