You have a 4 speed. Are you starting it out in second? I have never been a favor of toe play on a clutch. You need to provide more information as to why you think it is a power problem.

Right of the top of my head, read top post, but is the bolts loose on the bell housing? Reason I ask also is your driveway on a hill to the street where you back down a hill, and this happens? If so, check bellhousing bolts. also check the tranny crossmember.
