Nice looking project!
Where abouts is the new bonnet from mate?
And were the new pedals and clutch assembly easy to fit and set-up?

Cheers Paul

Carbon Delight, will be happy if they make a carbon boot

slave cylinder on the clutch arm was easy, but i wouldn't recommend the comp brake pedal box. Quality isn't great, i'd pay more next time

slave cylinder came from rallydesign part no 260-1333 and i also used a rose joint part no CR5F

they recommend a .75" bore master cylinder, think i used a .7
