Default New Clutch

I was having clutch issues with pedal sticking read and applied flushing method from Ranger but it seemed like only temp fix and that I might have had something wrong with hydraulics or slave cylinder, with all that in mind I ordered complete Tick perf kit with m cyl slave cyl and paired it with stage 4 monster clutch and 18 lb billet flywheel. Anybody running similar setup and I assume this will take care if my clutch issues

Do you have it all installed now?

I was starting to have a slight problem with the clutch not wanting to come back up all the way, after a few runs down the quarter.

I was hoping it wasn't the original stock LS6 clutch.
I've had the car since new & had always kept the fluid clean .

Figured I'd try the Tick clutch M/C & it took care of all my high rpm shifts,
without any pedal problems or missed shifts.

That has been almost two years ago now.

I am getting it installed now I was still running stock clutch and figured while he was doing hydraulics might as well go ahead and upgrade clutch pp and flywheel hopefully this setup will work well this clutch will be more than sufficient to handle added power later as I would like to add supercharger
