Installed the clutch flywheel combo with new Viper master and slave roughly 700 miles ago. Started noticing several weeks ago that I was having trouble shifting--seemed to be missing the gates or having a hard time getting into gear. I have a Gen IV shifter that I had not had previous problems with but thought it might be the shifter so I took the Gen IV out and put the stock Hurst back in. Felt much better immediately so I drove for a couple of miles with no problem and assumed it was a problem with Boomer's shifter. Today I drove the truck for about an hour to see friends and found that after the truck heated up I started once again to have problems hitting the gates both upshifting and downshifting. I sent the sifter back to Boomer to check out but I suspect that something else is happening after the clutch/flywheel heats up. Could this have something to do with the master and slave? Need your thoughts ,this is getting frustrating and the truck is just not fun to drive.

change the clutch fluid to motul 600 and get the air outta the system by properly bleeding and you will be fine

Thanks for your help I'll give it a shot.
 
If ya didnt change the stock fluid that is partial problem, the stock fluid breaks down easily under head, the motul has a higher boiling point.

Plus also take care and make sure the line from the master cylinder to the slave is far away as possible from the exhaust, some have even put spark plug heat boots,(from advance or autozone) on there to keep the heat off the line.
