The throw out bearing in the car presented a very special problem to us. As we moved the engine back about 6 inches, there is simply no room for a standard throw out bearing lever arm. We had to use a hydraulic unit on this car.
Now, many of you know I feel like the McLeod hydraulic throw out bearing has been banned from our shop as unworthy. So, we had to look for another unit. I figured I'd try a Tilton 61-601 hydraulic throw out bearing. Now, it says you HAVE to buy a base unit to use with that set up...baloney. We just make our own stuff around here
Anyway, you can't use the Tilton base as they don't have one that will work with an FE. So, we had to do a little modifying...(another reason the test drive is slightly delayed.)
