Has everyone put a cable clutch in the 1971 using the stock bell housing. I put a TKO in my car and has going to use the factory clutch rod setup but it does not seem to be working well. So throught I would upgarde to a cable setup.

http://www.7173parts.com/ or Ohio Mustang. If you don't like the feel of the stock setup, John at Opentracker racing can rollerize it for you, or you can do that yourself.

The car is getting painted right now so I can't take pics of the linkage. Try this site for pics http://429mustangcougarinfo.50megs.com/
Another source for clutch linkage parts is http://www.jkmustang.com/jkmustang/ I talked to the owner, Kern, last week and he said he had quite a few z bars and the rest of the linkage. The z bar seems to be the hardest part to find.
