Weird (maybe not) clutch problem
 
I have this weird problem that sometimes when I am stopped, put it in first, and take off slowly, that the whole car bucks violently while moving till the clutch is completely disengaged. Can anyone shed some light on this? I know it is really bad for my motor/tranny mounts. I just got a new King Cobra clutch, but I remember having this problem before with the stock clutch(not as bad). Thanks.

Did you have the flywheel resurfaced? Sounds like clutch chatter associated with either a very aggressive racing clutch (which you don't have) or some oil or deflection on the flywheel.

It's definately a clutch problem. I'd pull the dust cover off and see if there's any oil on your flywheel. Somethings definately up with your clutch. Did you install it yourself?

sounds like your flywheel has hot spots on it. rule of thumb, always have the flywheel turned when doing a new clutch job. my .02
