King Cobra Clutch

OFM
Thanks, I now have clutch. I still have a concern about wearing out the throwout bearing. Anyone else out there that knows more about clutches have any ideas? Is there a way to change the pivot point to get more throw on the clutch cable?

I have this exact setup, (Classic Roadster, T5Z, King Cobra Clutch) and have been told that these throwout bearings are made to ride the presure plate all the time. It is the same way in all the 5.0 mustangs with stock clutches. So far, no problems, all works well.

My clutch engauges about 3/4" from the top where I like it to be. I have a steel sleeve that slid over the cable end that allows more adjustment. It is about 2" long. Kinda like a 2" plasic straw made out of steel. The sleeve is between the clutch fork and the nut on the cable so there is way more adjustment room.

Just guessing here but I have gotten stainless tubing of different diameters
for other applications but would probably work fine here. You can get the
tube and cut whatever length you want. Ace hardware has quite a variety
and should have something you could use.
