I just installed a Steeda double hook quadrant (got from a friend, used the closest hook to the firewall) and BBK firewall adjuster (stock clutch & cable). I adjusted it so that the throwout bearing is just barely touching the pressure plate because any looser and the clutch was engaging right at floor. According to the service manual the throwout bearing is suppose to just barely touch the pressure plate and that's how it was with the stock stuff in there.
So I went for a drive and it doesn't like to shift at high RPMs when I'm coming on to it. I turned the adjuster out more and it seemed to raise the pedal engagement more, which I like, and it shifts better at high RPMs, but there seems to be a slight delay before it goes into gear. I have not had the car long and cannot remember if it was like that before.
So I'm looking for info, can you guys slam gears and have it go right in? Or is there a slight restriction before it will go?
And what's the best way to know if it's adjusted correctly without taking the inspection plate off the transmission?
