I am using one of the available brackets with a Honda MC on a Subi conversion. Is the spring on the clutch pedal still used? Seems like it would b eliminated.
Thanks |

On my hydraulic clutch setup, I replaced the existing spiral wound spring with one that is wound in the opposite direction so as to function as a return spring. I used a McMaster-Carr spiral spring, and modified the ends to re-create the hooks. I used a small butane torch to anneal the ends in order to make them easier to form. I don't have the McMaster-Carr part number at the office; will have to wait till I get home and dig it up.
