Hydraulic clutch help
Hey, I'm way out of my element with this. I bought a motor (250) and transmission that was mated to it that were in another hotrod. It's a saginaw 4 spd. I am guessing this was originally from a car. I like the idea of a shorter throw lever and gearing that will be better for the open road.
Problem: I am getting an adapter for brake/clutch from Captiainfab and I need to figure out the slave cylinder before I can move forward. I am looking at this from Summit. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hr...0/applications I like this option because I don't have to also have the slave bracket on the outside and it looks clean. Has anybody done this? If it's a bad idea, which slave would I use. Any help is great. Thanks

Re: Hydraulic clutch help
Hey your link is to a throwout bearing. I don't have the captain fab hydraulic clutch but what I used was a 0.70" bore Wilwood single master for my throwout. You have to match the bore to what you are using. My ZF5 used a .70 stock so I used that from Wilwood. They work pretty well.

Re: Hydraulic clutch help
IIRC, the Novak Adapter website had a lot of tech info on measuring/matching, check there too. I wanted a solid TO Bearing, and once mounted, an external slave is not really visible, so thats what I used: Novak kit with a Wilwood .75 master
https://www.novak-adapt.com/catalog/clutch/kit-hcr3/ The only thing left is to have a hydraulic line made with correct fittings on each end. A hose shop made mine in about 15 minutes for $50. Do not buy the line Novak sells, it is made to fit a Jeep Master, will not fit the Wilwood as there in not enough room to install adapters.

Re: Hydraulic clutch help
I also used the Novak setup in mine. It's been working perfectly for years.
