I just talked to Tom. He's still using and recommending use of a hydraulic/=
annular TO bearing. But, he won't use the McLeod piece, only Tilton, these =

Well, I did some measuring today (by the way the new clutch and cylinder ki=
ts didn=E2=80=99t solve my problem) and thought I would pass on info for an=
ybody that is interested.

The actual amount of movement of the slave cylinder with a full to the floo=
r movement of the clutch peddle is .745=E2=80=9D.=C2=A0 The measure of the =
piston movement from the very back to when the piston comes to the very fro=
nt of the cylinder (not protruding) is like I mentioned before is 1.35=E2=
=80=9D, so that leaves approximately .605=E2=80=9D more potential movement =
to apply to the clutch arm.=C2=A0 I=E2=80=99m hoping the .700 Girling maste=
r cylinder I just ordered will take up just that amount. I can only hope.=
=C2=A0 HA!=C2=A0 If not I=E2=80=99ll pull the engine and tranny again and g=
et a CF clutch.=C2=A0 As for a annular TO bearing, my friend has a highly m=
odified Mazda with a 331 Ford engine for road racing with a annular TO bear=
ing and it works very well with the stock master cylinder. I would be very =
interested in why TH doesn=E2=80=99t like them anymore.
