Default there was a post recently that most aftermarket clutches lock the selfadjusting mechanism.

is this the reason? good or bad?

Default How the heck do they manage to mess up the pp? They are using a luk plate to begin with.

maybe they need to stop f'ing around with them and just keep the pp as stock and sell them with thier clutch disks.

I dropped them from my line card due to lack of dealer/customer support.

Default Yah totally, was planning on it. What time should I drop it off?

I have oil, plugs, and the MBC (with T fittings) - no fuel filter or vacuum hose...
