Clutch Smells

[Slowdad]

I test drove a 2006 with a procharger. It drove very nicely, smooth shifting, etc. But when I really got on it, I noticed a strong smell coming from the clutch...like it was burning. Is that an indication that the clutch is bad, or would it be from maybe dragging my foot on the clutch and not fully releasing?

What kind of clutch was it? My McLeod RST smelled for a bit when it was breaking in.

It's the original stock clutch.

My stock clutch didn't last very long after installing the supercharger (Whipple). I'm guessing that it's slipping when you get on it and the boost builds. McLeod RXT and new OEM slave cylinder will take care of that issue.
