      T56 shimming questions..

      SOLVED..Hey guys, I have a LS based t56 built by texas driveline I dropped into my 78 Bandit, and need some help. Its built to be very similar to a Magnum F with the HP rating, real nice set up. They machined the hydraulic throw out bearing surface, and I have it shimmed. Im running a Monster clutch its a stage single disk clutch, with a factory GM Throw out bearing. I feel I shimmed it correctly to Monster specs, but I am thinking I did something wrong or measured incorrectly. trying to get it into gear isnt smooth when I have the clutch all the way in, it take a bit of effort, and in 3rd and forth I can feel the clutch slip when I get on the gas when cruzing. Its a fresh build, less than 20 miles, Ive adjusted the adjustable actuator to far I think to smooth out the putting the car in gear, and now I think Ive went so far that its not coming off the release bearing hense the feeling the clutch slip. I dropped a pic of the release bearing on the pressure plate in neutral.. questions, is it over shimmed? Pulling the tranny out isnt that hard believe or not, but want so ideas.
