Any tips before i start the build?

I meant use an external slave cylinder with a fork assembly, not the internal coaxial type. My internal hydraulic bearing was unreliable and a pain to fix.

ahh, gotcha! Did you try a mcleod bearing? I hear they are the best and have minimal issues when compared to others. I am about to install one in a 67 mustang and i truly hope that i dont regret using it instead of the slave cylinder set up.

Don't forget a good cup holder, remote trunk release
and maybe cruise control.
I went with the slave cylinder cause if that Mcloud goes bad it makes a mess and harder to replace. Been there done that.

You will.

You can drop the trans in the Mustang to fix it when it breaks. You cannot do that in the Kirkham. You will either have to dismantle the interior or pull the motor.

Da Boys were ready to make their own internal system...they chose instead to make the external setups for the various transmissions. That should tell you something...if the comments from those of us with experience don't.

Go ahead...put a McLeod in. We'll wait.
