Home made Hydraulic Clutch Setup

Yeah, maybe I jumped the gun.. Sorry.... To many posters reject adding modern technology when it really can be beneficial... Like I mentioned in my first post without changing the clutch eliminating the stock linkage and going hydraulic reduces the pedal effort quite a bit.. Yeah you gotta get the engineering right but that's not that difficult... In my buddies case he's had surgeries on his knee so reducing the effort was important...

I'm not rejecting a thing. It's like with my T5 swap. Gill Welding makes an adapter to adapt that transmission to the original slant 6 three speed bellhousing. So that means you can retain the original z-bar and clutch linkage and not change a thing. No fabbing for a hydraulic clutch. It's a real time and effort saver that I did not know whether the OP was aware of or not. I wasn't arguing one way or the other was better, just letting him know there might be another way. I'm fully aware how much less effort a hydraulic clutch requires. I simply wanted him to know there might be an easier way, IF less pedal effort was not ALL that he was looking for.
