Larry,

Clutch feels like a "real" car now?

Paul A

>Dave,
The 3/4" has a 3 5/8" pushrod and the 7/8 has a 4 1/8" pushrod.

The day is so nice that I decided to go home and measured them, and drive
the Bugeye back to work.

First drive other than around the block with the new clutch. It works
great...
