I was wondering if anybody has had the same problem as I have with my clutch cable(s). I have replaced it twice since installing BBK LT's, the second time was becuase the cable broke, I assume becuase the clutch was so hard to open that the cable snapped (it was in the car for about a year). When I put the second one in this summer it really improved, felt like I was driving my GF's Corolla compared to how it was before. So does the heat from the headers cook the cable inside or something? A little while after putting the second cable in it started to get hard to push again and now its almost as bad as before the last one broke. Also, the clutch cable is also a BBK part. Thanks!

Try an SN95 cable from MM - it is longer to help clearance it from your LT's.

Good luck.
