Need the help of R3V - Amputee Driving a Clutch

[5Toes]

Well more thought on this subject tonight and I have a good idea to present.

Take a motorcycle clutch master cylinder. Doesnt even need to be a big one... and run a remote brake booster in the trunk. Vacuum assisted clutch yes?

Any thoughts?

EDIT: Seems that brake boosters do not multiply force therefore, this idea would not make the the motorcycle m/c stronger. Reading now how to boost hydraulic force..

Brake MC's work exactly the same as a clutch MC on a motorcycle, but they are larger. If you figure out what diameter MC piston you need to drive the slave, you might be able to find something close. A lot of older motorcycles use 3 brake calipers, which requires the movement of a fair amount of fluid with quite a bit of mechanical advantage because there is no brake assist....

Thank you gearhead. Will look into it later today

Here's a thought. Buy a right hand drive car from the U.K.

Anyways good luck with whatever route u take.

You Funny, 5Toes !

I read this article, and the way it was worded was sort of weird

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_servo

It uses a stored vacuum to multiply (assist - it is not a multiplier of force) braking force applied by the driver to the brake pedal

Lol pedals aren't reversed.

U said u wanted the accelerator on the left correct? Most UK cars have the steering wheel and what not on the right since their roads are reversed compared to ours.

I thought they were? The one I saw was.

You saw wrong.

Pedals are not reversed on RHD cars.

Vtec has the best idea. If homeboy is actually capable of producing it, you should send him the $400.

I'm sorry, but are you fucking joking?
