Well, I just discovered that I don't have a .875 in bore slave, but a 1 in bore slave. Ahhhhh, that's the problem. Given that, I'm getting the right amount of stroke out of the slave (56% of the master's stroke).

Coyled, I wish I had thought of the washer trick before I put in the transmission. I'm so close that might have worked for me.

Morris, thanks for the calculations. That confirms my rusty hydraulics (mentioned earlier) that the stroke is the ratio of the areas.

Now, does anyone know where to get a .75 in bore Lockheed-Wagner slave cylinder (or one that mounts like it)?
