Default Tranny Problems

I am completely at a loss for answers right now. Here is the deal...

I have a 94 civic hatch with a B16 swap, S2S2 cams, valvetrain, IM, ECU, Edelbrock throttle body, STR fuel rail, MSD Digital SCI, cap, wires, and distributor, Quaife diff, and other small mods...

My car used to run great, UNTIL I decided to swap clutches, I went from a Clutchmasters stage 3 (whick was perfectly fine) to a SPEC stage 3 withh a lightweight flywheel. After this change my clutch started slipping pretty bad, and I had very little pedal pressure, so we bled the lines, replaced the master cylinder, and the problem was still there. I sent the clutch and flywheel off and had it replaced with a new flywheel, and a new stage 3 SPEC clutch with a stronger pressure plate. After this change I drove the car for about 550 miles to "break it in". NOw while driving when my car hits around 6-7000rpm, it feels like you stuck your foot on the clutch (although the clutch is all the way out), it does this in every gear. It feels like the transmission shifts itself into neutral. Does anyone know how this problem may be solved?? These tranny problems have been driving me crazy!!

I have a new slave cylinder on the way right now!

Please let me know how I can fix this problem!!

Perhaps the new pressue plate is more sensitive to the amount of pressure your throwoutbearing applies. In other words, your TOB may not be releasing completly from the pressure plate. Try loosening the lock nut under your dash on the rod that actuates the diaphram on your master cylinder. I bet it is pushing to far in there.

they probably sent u a clutch disk for a 90-91 cable tranny, theylle fit and everything but there not tight and it will spin over the iunput shaft and eventually lead to a blown tranny

NO...it is the right clutch, it is for B series transmissions. I'm just tired of this problem...
