hey guys ima new guy here im building a 71 ford maverick im swapping a 90 ho motor in my mav with a t5 and i was curious if you guys kno where i could get a clutch cable i alrady have my pedal assembly in i jus need the cable, do i have to get a mustang cable and modify it? any info would be great thanks
thanks man i apprecaite it but what cable was it out of the later mustang or the eariler one, if not thanks anyways
Its a cable designed to swap a T5 into old mustangs, but guys on here have adapted it to fit our cars. If you do a search you can find the info. But to be honest a hydralic setup would probably be easier. Thats what im planning for my swap.
I'm running the Mustang Steve kit, and I highly recommend it. You have to weld the quadrant to the clutch pedal, and dimple the cowl, but other than that, it is a pretty easy swap. The cable comes with it.
Go hydraulic you will not regret it. No header/exhaust clearance issues. And they are made for the 5.0 T-5 combo. Mine rocks. And I switched from cable...
Which kit did you use, and approx. how much are we looking at for the complete kit? I use a cable, but the hydraulic appeals to me also. Thanks,
Found this on the internet and am thinking of going with this setup. The master cylinder, slave cylinder and pushrod are from www.cncbrakes.com and can be ordered from www.carshopinc.com . 36” long braided clutch line from www.longacreracing.com part # 2805 and also can be ordered from www.carshopinc.com . Prices below are current prices and total including shipping is $205.76. Parts list: 1. Master Cylinder CNC 711-3/4 @ $78.95 2. Slave Cylinder CNC305-B @ $58.95 3. Pushrod CNC 1312 @ $19.95 4. Longacre 36’” Clutch Line $33.95 Noticed that a resevoir and line were not included at about another $75.00 and making your own trans mount and braces will put you at about $300 or more so probably alot less trouble to spend another $100 and get the one suggested by 69GT http://www.autoworksracing.com/65-70...lutch_kits.htm for $419.00

I did the cable swap to my car with the musatng steve quadrant and firewall adjuster and usuing a 99-04 mustang adjustable cable. if u dont have maverick pedals u can use 65 mustang pedal asy which i used with out a problem the only modification i made was to heat up the peddal arm and move it about 3/4 in to the left so it didnt hit the sterring column. if u have any question p.m me and i can even send u pics. craig
