Not Enough Clutch Travel

The picture is of the spacer I welded to the clutch pedal that pushes the master cylinder pushrod. I'm using a pull type slave cylinder attached to the tranny crossmember to pull the clutch fork. The master cylinder is Wilwood 260-1304, the slave cylinder is Howe 829. They both have a 1.375 stroke. I'm getting a full 1 inch at the clutch pedal measured at the master cylinder pushrod and 3/4 inch pull at the clutck fork. Does anyone think the pressure plate may not be releasing? I called a local clutch shop and was told they could test the pressure plate. I may do that before I swap master cylinder.


If the bores are the same,, they should move exactly the same,, you appear to be losing 1/4 inch.

You likely still got air in the system.. bleed, bleed, bleed..

The bleeder has to be positioned at the very top of the cyl, when mounted, to be able to get all the air out..

hope it helps
