Just an update, I did buy a Ford clutch cable a couple years ago. Had to go back and look, it was bugging me. Should have the quadrant and adjuster Friday. $49.99 FRPP cable and fork.

Does the csble say “made in Taiwan” on it? If so, that’s not the OE Ford cable which was made in the US

I just looked, I don’t see “made in Taiwan” anywhere on it, at least in the engine bay. I’ll double check that when I swap out the quadrant

Someone posted these on Craigslist. What do you guys think? Worth it? Maybe with some work of course. $400. GT40p heads.

Im starting to think $400 is too much.

Hey Mike, I saw your post on the other thread. Yes, they are off an Explorer. $200 is more of what I was thinking. Id probably be close to $1000 if I had a machine shop go through these, then the springs. May not be worth it. I know these can wake up the car a smidge, but if Im right around $1000, maybe Ill just wait until I can get something better. Or, maybe the guy will take $200.
