It is a centre push hydraulic clutch conversion which was put in, so much better than the first side push one I had. It makes gear changing almost like a modern car and I have been very pleased with it.I guess over the years I have got used to the way it delivers the power but anyone that comes out with me for the first time usually get out saying it is the quickest car they have been in!! All old school mods but still does the job!! A measure of how well it goes was a few years ago I had a a bit of fun with a twin turbo 525bhp Porsche 911. That to me is a quick car and although I could'nt get past it I was right on his rear bumper as he pushed it flat out up to "slightly over the limit". It was on a dual carriageway and further on we had to slow down as there was traffic building up. He was turning off to go on a different road and he pulled over and I came alongside him and he put his window down and shouted to me "fuck me what have you done to your Saff? I was flat out in every gear and could'nt beleive you were still right behind me, I have never had any other car that can keep up with me!!!!. I drove home feeling very satisfied and proud of my old 1990 Saff!!!
