Factory location Booster and Manual Trans
 

So I pose this question to anyone with a 47-55 only, those of you who happen to have a factory location brake booster and are also running a manual trans. I'm having clearance issues with my linkage to my clutch rod. I'm using a manual clutch setup. IE not hydraulic. Anyone else running a similar setup? What did you do for the linkage?

The last one of these I did I had to use the clutch fork and rods from the 235 or a 60's fork that's flat

I'm using a 235 clutch fork. The rod I am not.

Welk crap, I'd hoped there were a few more than this haha

Re: Factory location Booster and Manual Trans
 

Maybe a little better description than "clearance issues" would garner more responses. What exactly is not clearing what and where in the travel?

Re: Factory location Booster and Manual Trans
 

Sorry the clutch rod is rubbing against brake rod/mounting hole

Re: Factory location Booster and Manual Trans
 

can you post a picture, I don't remember them being that close. We just modified the rod a bit and it worked. I'll see if I have any pictures of what we did

Re: Factory location Booster and Manual Trans
 

I'll get some soon. But we have tried to modify the rod a few times.

I'm completely ignorant on using a hydraulic setup. Since I'm using a completely manual setup I don't know where to start.

Here are two pictures of what I did on a 47 using the stock pedals, granny 4 speed and a 292 with a 55-59 v8 bell which is similar to yours
