Reply to "Clutch Slippage"

I too have a clutch slippage problem. I just bought my 1985 GT5 that is pretty much in full race tune. The car was only driven a few miles last year. When I took my first spin I discovered two things. 1.)The car is scary fast. 2)The car is scary fast even with the clutch slipping at higher RPMs. I read up on the free play adjustment. My adjustment is almost all the way against the stop. Which to me looks like this would make the clutch disengagement at max. Also I disconnected the clevis pin, and the plunger traveled past clevis point toward the rear of car. I am having no troubles shifting into any gear, including reverse, and the clutch starts to release at mid way point. It does not feel like I have much free pedal play. I am not the best mechanic. Any thoughts? Oh yeah, I love my new Pantera slippery clutch and all.
