It slips like crazy and has no punch/bite at all.

here is how it's set up right now going from the engine bearing:

I've put washers behind the taper cone so my gears line up perfectly
stock clutch spring
I set the clutch spring nut flush as per instruction to the flywheel nut
2 shims (1 shim and the bell will bind)
bearings
thrust bearing
3 shims
minimal end float - 0.1 or so

After an abysmal night, i can see the clutch bell have heaps of clutch material on it, I sanded that off and it was better. I could have already burnt my clutch so i will buy another one but dont want to burn again

what am i doing wrong?
Should i get a softer clutch spring and/or different clutch material?

I'm running an OS TG right now

Thanks heaps in advance!
