You can't guess on whether or not the clutch is fully releasing.
First of all there is no way that you should run a Long style clutch in a Pantera. The system can't travel enough for it to fully release. You definately can hurt the trannie with one as a result.
A Borg & Beck, also know as a diaphram is what you should use.
You need to measure the clearance between the flywheel and disc at full travel.
The minimum clearance for a Long is about .035".
A diaphram should be about .045".
If you don't have that you need to find out why and correct it.
Also for some undetermined reason, the 10.5" clutch works better then the 11". It holds better, it releases better, etc.
I know it doesn't make sense but it is what I have found.
