Clutch master cylinder.

[Chrisss31]

I've decided to go with a hydraulic throw out bearing in my 66 Mustang project.  Has anyone come up with a clever way to rig up the master cylinder on the pedal assembly inside the car?  I'm just not crazy about putting it on the firewall next to the brake master cylinder.

I bought some parts and started working through it, then I found this...

If you get it let us know how it works.
I didn’t answer your post because I had no idea. I hung mine on the firewall.

Mal Wood is based in Queensland, Australia, and has a really good reputation in doing transmission conversions. I spoke to him about doing a T56 Magnum conversion in my ‘63 Galaxie, but decided to stay with the Toploader. All the info and pictures he sent me looked good, and he gets a lot of good reviews.

Will do!  The pedal assembly is really tight to the firewall so there is not much room down there.  I see they put that funky whoop in the pedal lever to make up the extra space.  It looks well made/well thought out.  I'll let you guys know.

I put a strut frontend in the car to make room for the FE.  It's made by another Australian company RRS, their stuff is very nice too.  Australia a strict standard of testing and certification to make any modification to a vehicle.  Everything has to be engineered and independently tested so it's very time consuming and expensive to get a new product to market in Australia.  Probably keeps the standards high.

Luckily for some of us  we don’t have to get our engineering checked out here in the states. Although it’s coming soon. There was a recent crash of a rebuilt Cuda with a celebrity in it. The highway patrol was all over it taking info for future legislation.

If so, they should solely look at the rat rod folks as from some I've seen, they are poorly though-out rolling death traps and a hazard to most!

Agree Bob.
 Although I do respect SOME of the engineering I see (mostly the well known guys like Troy) I honestly don’t know how you drive some of those deals.
And like you say many are sketchy at best. Hopefully those are “Concept” cars not for a lot of street driving.
