Little Details.

I'm not sure why but out of the box, my brake and clutch pedal didn't line up very well. I had to add a bit of length to the clutch slave rod to fine tune the placement of the clutch pedal. I wanted them to be perfectly in line. I couldn't find the recommended pedal pads that were supposed to fit the sickspeedmonte pedal. But I did find some in the "help" section that were larger that fit a Subaru. So, I made new larger pedal plates and welded them onto the brake and clutch pedal.



I also made a quick pedal retainer pin because It sucks trying to get the two pedals hooked up under the dash, laying on my back with a cage in the car.


I followed Mark Stielows lead here on the clutch slave cylinder. I'm running a stock 4th gen Camaro master and I'm probably going to run a Mcleod RXT twin disc clutch. I picked up a GT500 clutch slave for the extra travel for a twin disc. The only issue is hooking the master and slave together and bleeding the two. I've read the cobra guys bleed them by pulling vacuum then pumping or letting them sit overnight. Or, I'll bench bleed them as an assembly and install without unhooking the two.

I'm going to hook the master and slave with a section of pre-made -3 hose I had left over from my rear brakes. The -3 fitting for the master was easy as Russel makes them. The GT500 slave takes a weird M12x1.0 iso bubble flare. I couldn't find that with a -3 on the other side, so I made one. My lathe only cuts standard threads, but luckily I have M12x1.0 dies for another fitting I make for diversion tig welders.
