Default The ratio

that everyone tries to shoot for on the clutch is 6:1, which I think is the factory ratio. I personally have mine about 4.5:1 as I like a quick clutch. It is a little tough to get use to on the starts, but you can really bang the gears once you get rolling.

I noticed you are using the Mcleod master. If I am not mistaken it is a 1 inch bore instead of the Gm 7/8's bore. Make sure you speak with the clutch manufacturer about that. I had one of those and I could not use it with my Textralia clutch as the extra flow would invert pressure plate fingers. Obviously if you are going with Mcleod it will work fine. You probably knew this but a heads up just incase.

Really an outstanding car you have going. I would scuff it and shoot clear on it. I would had to cover all of that fantastic work!
