Is this a speed release?

[svtsilversnake]

I'm getting ready to do the clutch mod from this thread http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=313294

I can't remember when I bought this quadrant if it was a speed release or not.

 

[b dub]

Yes..only the 45 degree quadrants are considered to be "quick release", like yours.

 

[svtsilversnake]

OK so brand won't really matter I guess? Because ashley said to use the steeda cable.

 

[b dub]

No, she said use a stock cable. The brand of quadrant probably won't matter as long as it's a quick release design.

 

[svtsilversnake]

Sorry I meant quadrant. Autofail. I just ordered the adjustable cable so Hopefully my issue will be resolved.

 

[b dub]

Ahh. When did you order it, this morning? It would be worth the grief to call and cancel the order if you can. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt: adjustable cables are crap. You need a stock one. I glanced through that thread and saw the same recommendation I'm offering, too...

 

[svtsilversnake]

He said It's the OEM stock adjustable version. I asked him if I end up not needing it if I can send it back and he said Yes.

The problem is There is No slack in my cable and another one the same length won't work. I'll have to see How everything goes together first.

thats what she said.

trust me stock cable is the best ask me how i know... been there done that with adjustable they just don't hold up but good luck with what your trying to do

 

[mooch29]

[b dub]

He said It's the OEM stock adjustable version.

No such animal exists.

I had to buy a FRPP audjustible cable because my stock cable was a lil short after the new clutch install. Ford Racing M-7553-E302 - Ford Racing Clutch Linkage Upgrade Kits and Accessories - Overview - SummitRacing.com

That's terrible, you want the engagement point as high as possible without any slip so that the clutch is disengaged completely upon clutch depression. This is a HUGE and very common misconception in the automotive world, people think lower is better.

I'm going to use the adjustable only as a last resort. Thanks for the gl though.

I don't want mine on the floor either but a shorter travel would be nice. My current problem is the tob is ridding the pp fingers. Causing a squelling sound. The Bearing is brand new. I put the trans on myself along with the fork and new bearing.
