from what I have seen they go all spongy and wierd when they are stuffed, but if the cable moves free then I guess you ave no choice but to pull the box out, probably the original clutch in it |

Bellhousing pattern is going to be a fair bit different i'm guessing. I wonder if the master cylinder stuff can be swapped without too much hassle. Mind you, using 2 litre Vits as a donor isn't the best idea, they are pretty few and far between. |

i think the hardest part of sticking a clutch master cyl on would be changing the pedal from a pull to a push setup. as it so happens i have a sierra firewall that still has the pedals and dash attached so i am gunna drop it off a balls work and say, make good mate.

the pedal from a pull to a push setup. Mount the master cyl on the "inside" side of the firewall? Being up under the dash would be a major PITA obviously. But you could remote mount the reseviour in the engine bay so that it is at least easy to top up the fluid. Another thing that comes to mind is finding a donor master and slave to give the correct throw too. |

Grand Vits use a hydraulic clutch as well..But you probably knew that.... |

a van master under teh dash could work, fotting will suck I have seen a few shitbox 4age conversions that used a hydro clutch and the master was mounted under the clutch cable mount so the pedal pushed it long as you have the same diameter master and slave and the length from pedal pivot to master is the same as the cable was it should be sweet I would make the ratio a bit shorter though for less pedal throw, but thats jsut me |
