    Remote clutch pedal - hydraulic

    Im planning on removing my AOD and putting in a 5-speed maunal in the near fuftur for my below listed car. I dont want to mess with a stupid clutch pedal and cable. Do you guys know if one of those remote hydraulic clutch pedals used on sand rails and rock crawlers (due to frame flexing) are any good for a panther??? I have seen them with the resivoir built right in to the back of the pedal assembly. Any experiences???

    best bet would be to use the hydraulic clutch off a turbo coupe or a super coupe, i cant remember which one uses the hydraulic clutch

      super coupe is hydraulic.

      turbo coupe is basically an over grown FOX body and they all use cable clutches with the stupid self adjusting cable mechanism.

          I have a couple versions used in stock cars ... oval track stuff, trans am cars. Havent found room to mount any of them. Have both floor mounted and swing arm. So far cable looks the best bet.

              Wow, I would like that, but i bet it would be expensive (full electric.) How about an aftermarket unit??

                Havet seen any aftermarket kits for electrical operation except for automatics. Have heard of a handycap person doing it because he wanted a manual trans.
