kahmann Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 My 4 speed toploader has been installed and it's become evident that it will NOT work with the custom built Hedman long tubes and Flaming River manual rack/pinion steering kit. Both are interfering with the clutch linkage, making it impossible to use the mechanical setup. A cable clutch isn't offered for the old 4 speed, since the design is completely opposite (pull vs. push). I don't want to hack something together as a short term fix. So I'm looking for a Tremec. Any leads here? New is fine, but used is better. Thanks for any help. Ken EDIT: What about a hydraulic clutch kit for my 4 speed? I've found a couple sites that mention that this is an option. That would be a lot cheaper than a $3k tranny swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR40Freak Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Have you asked John about a T5. They may have some or may know where you can get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
