Hydraulic clutch revisited
Don't jump ship on the IH stuff yet.... I may not have enuff travel to keep the clutch fork stock on this rig. We'll see.... I've been looking at Jeep stuff that has more volume and travel also. I love the size and price of the Nissan parts but I am really wanting more of a bolt on deal. Took more pics today and almost have it ready to test. I will may end up doing like Robert did and move the slave in closer to gain the travel needed on the fork. I had another thought if I do modify the fork. I would cut off the eye and weld on a section of 7/16 grade 8 SAE bolt with enough shank and threads that I can bolt on a heim end and move it in or out enough to change the throw for adjustment. After a discussion with fstfish66 we found that the components for a 1985 vette (though a little more expensive) have the volume and travel to do the job with a stock fork and plenty of travel.
Here is the Corvette slave shown upside down
The master cyl looks similar to Jeep and Wilwood units.
