Hi guys,

Bit new around here and not a mechanic by far so thats why im here.

I need some advice on clutch set up and shifter set up on my T-5 which has been installed in a ac cobra replica (plastic fantastic ) which currently has a hydraulic LH Torana or GM clutch system.

The T-5 is a mustang T-5.

Im wanting to firstly know whats the best short shifter to put on to the T-5 B&M or a PRO 5.0 or any other suggestions??

And secondly whats better...a hydraulic clutch or a cable clutch set-up??? I have been having some trouble with the master cylinder on the clutch cracking seals all the time and its such a pain in the ass to repair which ive done twice so its time to fix it! Personally i would like to do away with the hydraulic clutch set up.

Thanks guys any suggestions?

I'd stick with the hydraulic...much easier!

The fact that you are popping master seals tells me that something is set-up wrong...probably the length of the pushrod. It is most likely too short allowing it to come back too far..it only takes a mil or two.
