Gas40,
The headers and sidepipes are from CR LTD before Don bought the company. They are on my Cobra right now and are actually kind of quiet. Although the Cobra is still in the garage and I have not drivin it yet on the road. I still need to finalize the interior and install the doors and windshield. Attached is a video of me pulling it off of the trailer and into the garage.

Gas40,
If you don't have a tube that bolts onto the firewall and the clutch sleeve/nylon beaing fits into then a simple 1/2" (?) tube works great. Shower curtain rod, towel rack rod, etc will work great. 4-/2" long to 5-1/4" weld a plate on one end allowing enough room for the cable to go through without hitting the tube, drill a hole on each end to put bolts through and you have it. If you really want to make it easy weld two 1/4x20 studs on the flange and simply drill a hole in the firewall for the cable and one 5/16's hole on each side and then bolt it on that way. Clear as mud? Take a look at a picture of one and it all becomes quite clear.

Gas40,
Look at my pictures. On page 2 these is a picture "clutch pedal area". That along with the "clutch cable firewall" shows it pretty well on how it goes together. I have not modified my "tube" yet. When I take it out I will make a print of the tube assy and post it in my pictures. I will let you know when I do that.
