Had lots of requests for pictures of the hydraulic clutch conversion, so here you go.
Things that have changed since the last episode: 1) re-did the slave mount. Got rid of the stupid pulley bracket and did it right. 2) MC install was a major PITA. Had to cut a chunk out of the pan and make a mounting surface that was flat and angled in the right direction. 3) I found that there is not enough room up next to the steering rack to cut a line and re-flare it after you have discovered that you slipped the flare-nut on backwards before plumbing all the lines (ARRRRGGG!!!!). That's ok, I did a better job the second time anyway. 4) Rebuilt pedal box while I was in there (Had the bronze bushing kit laying around). Thanks Lawrenece for your comments about this last week. I almost skipped it and saved it for another time. Glad I rebuilt it. Big difference. Ok, here's the pics. (No pic from inside the car 'cuz you can't see anything with the pedal box in the way) -Ben M. Attached image(s)
