Re: Clutch Master Cylinder/Slave Cylinder Question

That Wilwood clutch master has a .750" bore. With an original slave cylinder you need a 1" bore clutch master. That is what I would supply in my booster bracket for the '60-'62's with the hydraulic clutch.

To get the clutch to engage, i had to adjust the clutch fork so far out that while it will fall into gear, the clutch slips so bad that its undrivable. Am i missing something in tuning this setup to work with my 61 or am i going to have to find another master cylinder with a larger bore? Really confused on what I am missing as i thought this was a recommended combination for the hydraulic clutch.
Thanks in advance.
