Default Help ? Clear pics of hydro clutch conversion needed

As title folks , going to put one on the mk three , anyone got any clear pics of the required mods to the bulkhead and more so the clutch arm.

Looking to see what's removed from clutch ( ratchet ect ) position of clevis , size ect.


Just looking to button up my pedal assembly at the weekend so rather do the mods now

I've got a couple of pictures but all the parts are now buried in the loft with loads of other Sierra bits so sizes will be a problem





Slave cylinder and rose joint from Merlin Motorsport.

You will need to make up a pair of 'top hat' bushes to nip up on the centre part of the rose joint and prevent the pedal from crushing.

The complete ratchet mechanism was taken off and I had to remove a bit of metalwork on the pedal assembly that was in the way, no pics of this though.

I have a hole press/ punch type tool if you need it does a very nice job and much tidier than a hole saw

same sort of thing as this
