I have the King Cobra clutch and to get my clutch to engage it has to have pressure on the throwout bearing all of the time.

I was told by FORD that the throwout bearing (at rest) needs to hav 6-7 LBS of presure one the diaphram.

I have had it checked by the local hot rod shop and they said that everything was installed correctly but they did not like the 6-7 LB pressure idea and that they had never heard of it.

That said, I am not done with her yet so I have very few miles on her. One thing that I have noticed is if I am on the loud pedal fairly hard, 4TH does not seem to grab correctly. Seems soft like it is trying to slip.

I'll be watching this thread in hopes of some great information.
