I used a cable clutch on the white Midget when I used Fiat/Lancia 2000cc
twin-cam engines. Same cable as a Talbot Horizon (Plymouth in the US?)
Very stretchy. Too much trouble. I think Capris (Mercury?) also used the
same cable but in different total length. Problem also in making a double
shear mount for the pedal end of the cable, otherwise the pull just bends
the clevis pin between the cable end and the pedal.
