What brand pusher slave cylinder??
Ok I need some help from the experts. I have a 351W, tremec and an aluminum bellhousing with the new style clutch set up. I have a pusher slave cylinder but it does not seem to have enough travel to fully disengage the clutch. The car grinds when I try to get it in 1st and reverse. My car is a manufactured by shell valley. I talked with them and they do offer a cable style set up but I would really like to try and make this set up work. Any help would be much appriciated.
Thanks, Ray Hedden:D :D :D |
Make sure the ball stud is adjusted to the right height for your setup. Also, I usualy had to make my own pushrod so that it would be just the right length, about .250" freeplay when the piston is bottomed out in the slave. Measure the piston travel at the master cyl, calculate the volume of fluid displaced based on travel and diameter. Thjis volume of fluid will be pumped into the slave, so see how much travel it will get based on it's diameter. There may not be enough fluid getting pushed down there to fully disengage the clutch.

I dumped the external cylinder in favor of the Tilton hydraulic bearing setup. It replaces the "nose" of the Tremec with an adapter, and a combination throwout bearing/hydraulic cylinder. With a 7/8" master cylinder, it works perfectly. I can send some pix if you like. It's a very clean setup BigMike |
