cheap clutch or v6 t5 not working 4 me.

i used a v6 t5 to finish my auto to manual swap in my v8. the problem is at high rpm it feels like the clutch is slipping. the clutch is a cheap, 10.4? clutch dish (i think). is my problem the cheap clutch or the v6 trans?

A manual transmission does not "slip". Only a clutch can do that.

That problem is clearly the clutch.

As to whether "my problem" is the clutch or the trans, I think you'll find once you replace the clutch, that the trans will still be "my problem". Instinct tells me you'll get REAL tired of the excessively wide gear ratios REAL quick.
