Brad or Ben, think this might work for a clutch master cylinder?

I'm interested to hear brad's comments, but I think you'd have a hard time using that MC. You will be mounting it down there with the steering rack and the brake MC, so you really need a remote resevoir. I don't know if you could get that one mounted due to the height of the resvoir, and if you did you'd have an imposible time filling it.

Take a look at the Tilton MC's. They are less than $60 for a kit that includes everything to set it up with a remote resevoir (including 2 sizes of reservoirs). I'm using the CNC brand pull-type slave cyl. It's designed for a 3/4" MC (but I'm using a 7/8" - we'll see how it works out).

ps - here's where I ordered mine: http://www.pitstopusa.com/TILMASTERCYLINDERKITS.asp

I'm completely clueless on the engineering of a hydraulic clutch for a 914, but I think Rich Johnson has done it. I'd contact him and find out how he did it.

Not enough room Geoff. I like the size.. but NO WAY that resovoir is going to make it under the sheet metal.

Rich Johnson's mechanic (Wes Hildreth) sells a complete kit for ...get this... 1500$

I'm out.. I'll use Tilton/CNC/Neal

Yikes! Yeah, forget that. Looks straighforward enough from what I've seen so far on this board. I'll just steal intellectual property here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
