[6pack] .75 bore clutch?

[James_]

Thanks Jim. 
I guess the brake master cylinder was the one I heard I really need to buy new. Good to know you clutch cylinder has been fine. I wonder if the brakes would hold up as well with the new fluid.

Flushed it all out with silicone fluid and never had a problem in the following three years I owned the car. I would stay with the .70 clutch. There was a reason it was changed, but for the life of me I cannot remember. My '72 had the .75 bore part. The effort seemed okay but I didn't care much for the long throw.
