nice work jeff one of the best ive seen when i did my hydrolic clutch conversion on my saff i notticed that when i pressed the clutch pedal the bulk head moved to much i made plates up like yours so i ended up waisting two days makeing up a brace that didnt solve it so ended up putting m cylinder on the pedal box and braced it with angle iron and flat plate to the bulk head it doesnt even move at all now i hope you dont have the same prob

the only problem I had with mine was when I extended the rod on the master cylinder to bring the pedals up level,this moved the bite point right at the top of the pedal.ive now removed the extension and alls good.
do you have any pics of how you've done yours?

this will probably be the last update for the year,all the powder coat is now back and fitted.

Looking great Jeff. This car really is a credit to you. Did you get any 500 grills in the end?
