For some reason, i just can't seem to stick to doing just enough to actually get my car running. My latest distraction is doing a hydraulic clutch conversion. I tried researching other people's solutions, but haven't found one that I liked.
As I usually do, I go for something that is close to our family. This time, I chose the PT Cruiser setup, since it's a 4 cylinder turbo. This is the master cylinder.
This is the slave cylinder. I like the throwout bearing design, over the push fork setup.
I have kept an old block around to test fit designs. I have an overhead winch that allows me to raise and lower the 555 tranny.
This was the stock setup that I wanted to replace.
Unfortunately, this slave cylinder is not going to work, because there isn't enough space for it between the housing and the clutch. The original is on the right.
I'll get into more detail in the next post.
