Car will not shift into gear
So I took out the car last night to show my friend the IPF supercharger I just put into my 2010 LLT, and did some high revving around the neighborhood, and I noticed grinding from the gears whenever I did a quick shift. 1st to 2nd always produces grind for me at high rpms so I didn't think anything was off. Well all of a sudden the clutch pedal sticks completely to the floor and won't budge. I turn the car off and slide my foot under the clutch and pull it back up. But now when I start the car, it won't get into gear at all. Like the clutch just doesn't engage at all when I put the clutch pedal down. I have a separate clutch reservoir and it doesn't look like any fluid drained. I have a Barton Short Throw Shifter and Spec Stage 1 Clutch.

Sounds like the clutch mechanism is toast. Either that or an internal hydraulic part failure.

Ya but I put in a new Spec stage 1 clutch assembly 4 months ago and it literally went from working perfectly fine to not at all

You blew out the slave. Clutch is probably fried now.

Was this from too much quick shifting? I don't ever do burnouts or anything like that, but I do like taking advantage of my short throw. I just wanna know how to prevent this from happening again
