I went with a T-5 behind my 302 and installed a cable clutch. Everything went together great, but when i went to try the clutch and adjust it, it was rock hard and wouldn't compress. I called summit racing where i purchased my clutch and they suggested i try an adjustable pivot ball. That actually helped, but now its still super hard at the bottom of the pedal and then the pedal doesn't come all the way back up. I haven't tested to see if it will even go into gear because I am scared the clutch is bottomed out or something. Any suggestions?
Here is the setup...
1967 mustang...originally automatic
installed 67 stang clutch pedal
t-5 conversion cable clutch setup
10.5 inch late model clutch, 28 oz flywheel etc.
Have lakewood scatter shield bellhousing
Used a lakewood clutch fork (longer than stock)
When i installed the clutch the pressure plate bottomed out on the flywheel and the teeth compressed quite a bit before the bolts got tight. I believe this is correct....right? I torqued the bolts to 18 foot pounds.
any thoughts would be appreciated...thanks
