Hi Guys
Wondering how anybody who used a Wilwood attachd it to Jose's bracket. Thanks. Tom

...Hi Tom, Are you refering to the wilwood CLUTCH SLAVE cyl.?
Looking at my/Jose's bracket and the Wilwood slave on one of my VW buggies I see that they dont match up.
When I got my kit ( a year and half ago ) I was aware of that but I'm not ready to tackle the issue yet ( not moving along as fast as you! )
Different slave or different bracket I guess.

If I'm understanding your question, I used a threaded female Heim joint on the bracket side bolted to the bracket, and a clevis on the clutch lever side.

I'm using a Wilwood slave on my V6. I works out just fine, but if I recall it required that I made a custom clevis.

Thanks guys, so your saying the Heim bolts to the bracket and I need a clevis for the bell crank arm. I think I was trying to mount it upside down. Thanks again. Tom

That's what I did. I had a clevis made too. Couldn't find one off the shelf strong enough for me to be comfortable with. A friend with a machine shop overengineered one for me.
