FYI, I have one of the old JMC Motorsports systems that I bought back in 2009, recently the master went bad and the company is Out of Business. So after asking around I finally got an answer for my fix. To repair the 3/4" master I had to use a Harley 3/4" brake master rebuild kit (45400), this was a perfect rebuild kit for my needs and after an upside down bench bleed it was installed and still works to this day. I use an 86 bellhousing with my T5 on my 67.

You get all the air out the opposite way you get all the air out of the cooling system on a ford FE. Drive the front end of the car into a low area. or raise the rear. once the slave cylinder is past level with the bleed screw higher than low part of slave system, it can properly bleed. (FE cooling system requires rear end in ditch, remove radiator cap and bounce front end by jumping on bumper.)

What a great video! I'm working on my project which is a 1953 Ford Mainline. I decide to put in a Ford 300 inline 6 and mach it up to a T5. I love the idea to have a hydraulic clutch in it. So i have a couple of questions for you. 1- what T5 would you go with? 2- What master cylinder and slave cylinder would you recommend?
@dazecars2 ай бұрын
First question is the easier of the two. For best results you want a V8 T5, preferably from the early 90s. It will be more robust than the late 80s T5s. There are several things you can add to a T5 like a billet counter gear stabilizer and one piece steel input bearing retainer to increase the strength of the T5. As to what master and slave I first need to know how much stroke is required at the clutch fork for your setup. From there we can work backwards and try to determine the best master slave combo for your application.

That is correct. The inner hole fits the spherical ball better and by moving it 1" closer to the pivot .1" less of stroke is required to actuate the clutch. One could design a bracket to use the original cable hole if they wanted to but that is not how I designed mine. I wanted to slightly reduce clutch fork stroke and tuck the slave cylinder in to the transmission as close as I could.

Then they would not have to use an adapter plate at all since you would be getting rid of the toploader bellhousing and toploader trans?

No return springs are required. The pressure plate will force the slave piston back into the slave pushing the master plunger out, returning the pedal to the normal resting position. If you have any other questions don’t hesitate to ask. My instructions are basic and require a certain level of ability on the part of the installer because all these cars are different.

With that said I am always willing to help in any way I can.
@VegasRT500 Жыл бұрын
Do your installation instructions for one of your hydraulic slave cylinder tell how to bleed the system since that is the main complaint being air trapped in the system. I have heard there are some mathematical calculations that need to be done when using a hydraulic throw out bearing but does the external type slave cylinders like those you show in your video require alot of calculations regarding the throw out bearing or can you just bolt up the external slave cylinder along with mastercylinder and lines then just make sure the system is bled free of air? Sorry about all the questions. I am trying to convince myself and rationalize going hydraulic instead of a z bar mechanical style.
@dazecars Жыл бұрын
They are a pain to bleed and the kit instructions come with basic info but also because all these cars are a little different are only basic and assume the installer has decent mechanical ability. With that said I provide excellent tech support answering install questions including additional info for those that need it on bleeding the system. The only math is in matching the master cylinder to the slave cylinder. You want the bore of the master to be smaller than the bore of the slave to reduce pedal effort BUT if the master cylinder bore is smaller you must have enough master cylinder stroke to have adequate fluid volume to provide the required stroke to actuate the clutch. I have done the math and the master cylinders I sell meet both requirements for the clutch kits I sell. If you want to use your own master I would need to know its bore and stroke. At that point I could do the math and see if it would work with either of the slave cylinders I offer. I am happy to answer your questions here but it might be easier if you contacted me through my website so we can correspond via email.

Then you can use a threaded rod or clamp to pull the clutch fork forward until the output shaft of the transmission spins freely. Mark the fork location on the bell and measure between your two marks. If it is 1” or less my kit should work. More than 1” it may still work with a bigger master BUT it will increase pedal effort.

@dazecars Жыл бұрын
There are a couple ways that I know of to run the OEM mechanical linkage. One is expensive and the other is not recommended in my opinion. The first is to use a quicktime 3550/TKO bellhousing (will also fit the TKX) Those bellhousings are engineered to use two different clutch forks. One is actuated back to front allowing you to run a cable clutch or hydraulic clutch and the other is actuated front to back allowing you you use the stock linkage. That bellhousing is in the $900 range plus or minus depending on accessories needed and shipping. I don't know what else is required to use that bellhousing. Flywheel clutch and starter may or may not need to be changed as well. A quicktime bellhousing is a very effective way to maintain the mechanical linkage but expensive. The second option would be to run an OEM ford 4 speed bell and TKO adapter plate. This is a lot less expensive $200 range plus or minus. The problem is modern transmission require the bellhousing accuracy ≤ .005" and old school Ford bellhousings had tolerance of up to .030". If you run an adapter you MUST use a dial indicator to properly align the bellhousing and engine to the transmission by shimming the bell and using adjustable alignment pins. It is a pain to get set up. When I first installed a T5 in my mustang I used an adapter and it was by no means a "clean" install. When I upgraded to a T5 specific bell I was much happier with it. Same is true of the TKO and TKX. So while the adapter plate option can be made to work and even work well I would not run it on my cars when there are easier options.

Sadly it doesn't seam to be that simple, man do I wish it was. I have spent more time helping people work on getting all the air out than any other tech support activity I do.

The result is always the same, it takes forever but eventually they manage to get all the air out. The only saving grace is hydraulics are absolute so you can know for sure of all the air is out by measuring slave stroke. If you are not getting the stroke that the fluid volumes of the master and slave say you should get than air in the system is the issue.

Hi, Day. Have you ever tried the master cylinder/ReinforcementPlate/Offset Pushrod you offer with a hydraulic ThrowOut? Any idea if that would work?
@dazecars Жыл бұрын
I have not tried it but there is no reason I can think of that it would not work as long as the master cylinder would except the 3/8" bolt of the offset pushrod and had the same bolt pattern as my reinforcement bracket.

From looking at the Tilton 6000 series T5 T/O bearing specs, it looks like they'd recommend the wilwood 260-5920 MC, which I believe is similar (if not the same) to what you sell already. Now I have to decide if it's worth the extra to have hydraulic T/O or, just go with your whole Slave Cylinder kit. Thanks!

@@CheesySteve That is the exact same MC I sell with my kits. The retailing washer in the master needs to be removed and drilled out to 7/16" to accommodate the 3/8" pushrod. I personally don't like hydraulic throwout bearings, they can be a pain to service and more than that I don't like the way they feel. With a slave cylinder you can still feel through the pedal what the clutch is doing just as you can with a z-bar or cable. With the hydraulic throw out bearing that feeling is gone. A hydraulic throw out bearing can be made to work very well, I just prefer the slave type.

What bore is master and slave ?
@dazecars Жыл бұрын
slave is 7/8 the master is 13/16" but its not just about bore it is also about stroke. Correctly matching a master and slave starts with knowing the desired stroke at the slave than calculating the the required stroke at the master (based on both bore sizes) to achieve what you need at the slave keeping in mind that a smaller bore master will have reduced pedal effort and better pedal feel.

i have a 1970 mustang and it has an fmx trans what pedal parts do i need to work with your parts
@dazecars11 ай бұрын
My Mustang kits are specifically designed to work with OEM clutch pedals. My offset pushrod is the same for all years except the 67 and up kits come with a longer mounting bolt and extra spacers because the OEM clutch linkage hole is more outboard from the column. With that in mind any OEM style clutch pedal 64-70 should work with my kit HOWEVER I have no idea what if any modifications would need to be done to it to make an earlier pedal work in your car.

@@poppacapinya those all sound like good reasons. A Mustang II suspension will perform well but IMHO is inferior to the original mustang suspension design with a retrofit coil over kit that goes all the way to the lower control arm. (see my video on the subject) you’ll get better ride quality better handling and it’s all around a far superior suspension. Mustang II also has a slightly reduced turning radius. With that said, mustang, II is the perfect choice if you need to illuminate the shock towers. If you plan on putting a bigger motor in the future, then mustang II is the only way to go, but if you’re just after “a little more room“ and could still work around the shock towers, you will have far better handling if you leave the shock towers and go with a coil over kit. Just my $.02
