I purchased a spec stage 1 clutch kit and a new fidanza flywheel earlier in the year, i now have around 600 miles on the clutch/flywheel, the paper work recommends a gentle break in period for the first 450 miles, which i did my best to do, no hard take offs, no side stepping the clutch in any gear and as little slipping as possible, however i live in a big ass hill that i have to climb to get out, so the clutch is getting slipped and hot from the start, now when i first take off it seems like it drags for along while before it fully engages once its slipped for alittle bit, in traffic it will straighten out but its very grabby, the pedal lets out alittle over half very soft, the all of a sudden theres pressure in the system and the clutch grabs hard, its stalled the engine several times, i can very slowly work the clutch out and avoid this, the car will actually take off and pull itself if i ease it out slow enough. my problem/ question is should i be checking deeper into my clutch for a problem or is this normal for spec clutches? i had it very well adapted, i could drive it no problem and over the course of a week as i passed 550miles it changed massivly. thanks in advance for any answers or help you might have.

did you bleed the system already

yes, i bled the system about 4 or 5 times, each time it took about 15 mins to get my pressure back, and the last 3 times the clutch never changed, theres no more air coming out, i also had a shop vacuum bleed it when i was all done and its about as good as its gonna get, i was mostly curious if anyone had similar issues.
