That sounds strange. But, if you happen to have TKO600 behind an FE, the spline on the driven disk, with most clutch alignment tools, does not fit perfectly with the pilot bearing (because you're really using a Chevy driven disk and tool, but you've got a Ford pilot bearing). Mike Forte makes a tool that fits perfectly, though. That's the only way I could make sense of your clutch slipping out of alignment, either that or you have the wrong transmission.
