I also removed about .060 from the single disk that is closest to the flywheel. Clutch had about .040 of clearance before they would hit when I pulled the trans to do this. Now I have .100 of clearance. When I measured the pads, if the pads wore down to the bare metal i should just be running out of clearance.

So for anyone doing this just measure out your clearances before you trim. I dont think that you can go to much but on my setup .060 was perfect.

I had this done with new disks when I rebuilt the clutch.

Now it seems one of the disks is spinning on the input shaft, I've not taken it apart yet to see exactly what happened.

I probably wont take it apart to know for sure for a couple more weeks yet.

The input shaft looked good when it was apart for the rebuild.

Roughly 4k DD miles and maybe 30 launches from 1/8 and 1/4 runs.

Looks like I'm next to test this out. I only got about 2000 miles out of my powertrain tech; clutch stop and all, and brand new. (PTT is essentially QM) How disappointing. So still no word from QM huh?
