rpms climb quickly but car doesnt move as fast
Well lets see if i can describe my problem a little better this time, first off, when i'am in gear lets say in first when i press on the pedal slightly and hold it there my revs keep on climbing, but the speedometer reads at a much lower rate, same with when i shift into other gears i notice that the engine speeds up very quickly with a little tap on the throttle and the rpms climb quickly
but the car sure isnt moving as quick. I just had a new clutch put in and the original flywheel that was machined, so i think it cant be the clutch. Do you think its the midpipe doing this???? any possible diagnoses?

just like brakes....easy driving for a few hundred miles. no hard starts/launches--match revs when downshifting. jboncher has it right. pull the pins and machine where the plate mounts to the flywheel. most people ( well, the guy who does my flywheels) measure the distance of the stepdown from where the pressure plate mounts to where the disc surface is. keep the ratio the same and you should not have the problem that you do. sorry dude....pull it and check
