Patrick,

Is there a limitation with the FIA that would preclude use of an external slave cylinder ?

In reading the FIA manual (pg 31) ... for easiest installation with a SBF, ERA recommends the following:

Concentric TOB (internal) for T-5, Tremec
External slave cyl for Top-loader, Richmond Gear 5 sp

On page 32 it's noted that some clutch/transmission setups work better with a concentric TOB.

So, I will need to check with Bob to see if it will fit, but for my car I am looking at the TKO 600, QT Bell Housing and external slave cylinder. I certainly respect ERA's recommendations as they know what works best for their cars.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
