    I was lucky, my car came as a manual... I changed to a auto and gave my pedals to my friend Jim, he gave them back to me when he found out I was doing a t5 swap....

    My pedal's not much easier to push than with the mechanical linkage. I had to shim that slave cylinder bracket to reach the inner hole on the clutch fork with a straight pushrod. I couldn't get it to the outer one. It works, but it's not the easy push I was expecting from a hydraulic setup. Anyone else running the king cobra clutch?

    Uh..oh. I thought they were both 3/4, but according to the part numbers it looks like I managed to get a 3/4 master and a 7/8 slave. Wonder how I missed that.

    Hmm. Maybe I did it on purpose. I did a search and wound up at Rosehill. I found my 305 pusher and the site recommended a 3/4 master cylinder for it. For some reason I ordered my parts from two different places-the Chassis Shop and Hawkins. (almost 3 years ago-can't remember)
