Cable F series tranny

[js_og]

Ok here's my trouble:

I realised that the transmission I got for 75$ is an hydro one. Apparently I got a couple options:

1) Adapt it pretty much like Damkid did
2) Maybe get a pedal assembly made for an hydro transmission?
3) Get a cable operated one

Since I got no welding machine available, I can't go with #1 and Chris is only making the brackets for F series. Don't know much about option #2.

I'm leaning towards option 3 for now and I don't know which cars and what years have a clabe operated F series.

G Series :lol:

Are you comfortable mounting a clutch master to your firewall converting your festiva to hydraulic? if not then i'd suggest finding a cable operated one

My initial problem with G series was the axles... a little hard to find, and $$$

Since I paid 75$ for a tranny instead of 250$, I thought I'd jump on it. I wouldn't say I'm comfortable with the hydro conversion, but I'm open. There's not much info into it though :S

[Damkid]

There are a few members who have converted to hydraulic but I think each person does it differently, which would be why there's no write-ups, basically just get a clutch master from your choice of vehicle (probably one the has its own resovoir) then drill a hole in the firewall, mount the master, attach the rod to your clutch pedal and go lol

I see your point Chris. Thanks a lot aligning my confused mind
I'll try to see if the resources around me get the idea. If not, I'll go straight cable.

Up! We need to know what cars have a cable operated F transmission?

If you want a hydro clutch pedal assymbly I have one. It goes with my hydro tranny but if it doesnt sell along with my BP engine then you have dibs on the pedal assym. if you want.
