No I've never had any noticeable slipping, when I dump the clutch it's instant smoke show. I found a guy that will build a solid hub ceramic puck clutch disc with my splined hub center. I'm pretty sure I'll be moving away from this trans in the near future though. I have an easy iron block t5 adaption with a removable auto bell and plate and I rally am trying to go alloy manual trans so I can just throw the 5.6 in it. I have a beat alloy trans I'm gonna open up and measure to see if it's worth cutting it apart for the bell. T5 and hydro throw out ,modified BMW or ford flywheel.
