Miles Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) 72 240Z 350 SBC T5 Camaro transmision The Tilton 7/8 clutch master cylinder I installed six years ago failed so I replaced it with a Wilwood Compact Clutch Master Cylinder No: 260-10374. I replaced the clutch disk, pressure plate, throwout bearing and clutch slave at the same time that I Installed the Wilwood MC. The throw on both MCs is 1.1 to 1.2 inches. The Wilwood MC is bled and firm, but it is not giving enough throw to completely disengage the clutch. Anyone have experience with the Wilwood Compact Clutch Master Cylinder? Given that the diameter and throw is almost identical to the Tilton MC, the Wilwood MC should work. Edited May 28, 2015 by Miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Problem solved I removed the clutch stop bracket on the floor. While pushing the clutch it came to me that it was engaging just as it hit the pedal stop on the floor. So I used a Dremmel and cut the stop off and now the clutch is fully disengaging. Followup search of the web shows that this is a common problem when altering stock clutches. Now I can feel clutch arm fully move at about the point where the bracket used to be. No more grinding.
