MOST of replicas have an after market clutch system, it's simple. Follow the manufacturers recommendation.

About the only guys that might have an OEM stock unit (Ford) would be a "donor" type build, like an FFR or maybe a Classic Roadster. Your first clue would be a "cable clutch". Many of those WITH a cable clutch either replace the cable with an adjustable after market unit or figure out how to get the clearance. Not everyone believes Ford has a better idea, especially when they just installed that new $500 after market clutch!

It's really not complicated at all, you need to follow the clutch manufacturers specifications (.100 to .300 clearance generally speaking, 1/4"). 95% of replicas will be running an aftermarket clutch.
