G50 clutch question

[softright]

I have just had a new PP, flywheel and metallic clutch disc installed in my 87 track only 911. At the point of drive-line engagement (clutch disengagement) in first gear, I am getting a fairly loud momentary squeal. Almost sounds like a metallic version of momentary tire lockup. I can make it happen in second a bit by mis-matching the revs/feathering the engagement, but otherwise all other gear transitions are quiet. Drive-line locks up nicely as soon as the clutch is disengaged in all gears - no slipping. New TO bearing and guide tube. Could this be a wear in situation or is that not really a factor with a racing style clutch disc? Thanks

When I had a Kennedy Engineering PP and non OEM clutch (don't remember what clutch) I had the same thing. It only seemed to happen when I had to slip the clutch on a hill or something. Don't know what was causing it. It may be normal with the type of clutch/PP.

btw - the clutch is the coupler in the system. You're engaging the clutch when you're hearing the squeal.

this may not be relavent... but the exact thing happens on my Volvo after I replaced the clutch... when I replaced the clutch on 89 911 all seemed perfect and still is...

What kind of clutch facing does your disk have?

I have the Kennedy light weight pressure plate with a Sachs sprung dub disk and the thing doesn't make any engagement sound. (Love the combination...)

Patrick Motorsport, metallic, bronze sintered I think. Made for racing durability. On or off,any slipping and you get a "chirp".
