clutch slipping rx7.help

My clutch in my 13b racing enging which is dual plate, was engaging at the top of the clutch pedal. Took it out for a test drive and it started slipping and in a mile had no
friction at all......
looks like the only adjustment is on the pedal......as the slave cylinder and clutch arm from the tranny are fixed.......I have about 3/4" left that I can raise the clutch pedal which I will try........before it happened if I was in neutral with the clutch out there was a noise of something spinning......don't know if that's normal or not with a dual plate clutch/////if I have to pull the tranny so be it........but I'll just put in a single disc clutch...not the hard to start off dual plate........I drive it on the street

any body can help me?

Twin plate clutch will make noise with the pedal out, usually intensifies with clutch pedal in though. just the nature of them. Cant help with the rest, good luck.
