Default gorrilla clutch pedal
Installed a 7/10 master cylinder to a 7/8 external slave cylinder on a toploader trans with a 10inch Ram finger clutch. I need to be a gorrilla to depress the pedal. I'm using a 65 mustang pedal assembly, with the original pivot points. The leverage is not there.

increase means smaller master. Correct?

Hi sbh,
What was wrong with the .7" master you replaced? The .875" would increase the effort (pedal pressure) and travel.
