Default Disengagment issues...

Had a Luk Pro Gold installed 1.5 yrs ago w/ new hydraulics. After 7k miles it started slipping and I realized fidanza flywheel insert was warped. So I replaced it w/ a new one and upgraded to a Centerforce 12" Ceramic. It engaged on the bottom half w/ no shim, but I figured it was because it was new and I'd drive it to see if it got better. 2k miles later I have the tranny rebuilt for 3/4 grinding. Realize clutch is never fully disengaging and that might have caused my the tranny problems. So I buy an adjustable master, doesn't help. Put in new slave and 3mm shim, no change if not worse. I figure the flywheel insert must be warped again. Your thoughts please, because I'm running out of patience and money...thanks, Chris
