heres the problem. i was going down the freeway and i go to downshift and i notice that my petal pressure is alot softer than normal i give it a little gas and it basically just revs and does not move. so i figure ok the clutch went out, we put a new clutch in it and it was better but it still would slip under boost, new slave cylinder again it would still slip under boost, new master cylinder and still is is slipping but not as bad. i have bleed it so many times i just really dont know what the problem is. sometimes if i bleed in and drive it right after the car will run like a champ for a little while until i get on it a little. i just really dont know. any help would be great thanks alot

I assume that you have bleed the clutch system ... if there is no air in the system and tranny seal is not squirting mtf all around the bellhousing you should not have the problem with new clutch ...
I would guess you are running a strong pressure plate, I would check the fork in the bellhousing, if its bent that could go for the pedal feel part of it. The slipping part although seems like an issue with the clamping ability of the pressure plate to the flywheel, is the flywheel stepped or cut?

yes it is a clutchnet clutch i forget what stage and im not to sure about the stepped or cut part. im thinking about getting a another new clutch to see and more info on the fork please
did you clean the clutch and flywheel of all grease smudges? One other idea I can think of that would cause this would be the splines on the mainshaft worn or the teeth on the clutch worn causing slippage.
I dont think your fork would cause your clutch to slip. I just had to replace mine. It started bending and cracked. When it went out I couldnt put my car in gear. I had to start my car in gear and drive without the clutch. I can only think that the clutch is bad. Maybe it was glazed over from doing whole shots. I will think about this more....
