Hydraulic clutch set up

[SydneyChris]

hi Gazza,

You are correct.. the Centreforce unit wasnt spaced correctly and had only 3mm of preload... it was definitely at the end of its travel.

As for the un-named Cobra builder that put it together when everything was easy and accessible out of the car... I think the outcome thus far is testament enough.

Pic of the factory flywheel attached.

I think you may have read the dimensions around the wrong way.. the factory set up is 25mm wider than the Centerforce components. As such the current SS would have has a static preload (or crush) of 28mm as noted, exceeding the 17mm max as previously advised and confirmed by Mal Wood in QLD.

The SS cant be spaced towards the engine.. its too close already.

Solutions not easy to come by just yet, but it surely cant be this hard with the right info at hand.

Can anyone confirm the unloaded length of the slave cylinder on a TR6060 for use with a factory clutch, pressure plate and clutch plate..? It would be equivalent to a post 2012 VE HSV. The unit I have measures 90mm when standing on a bench.

The last pic is of an LS7 flywheel which is more like what I am looking for.. recessed face, single piece component, not much wider than the Centerforce flywheel overall.

Cheers

Chris
