clutch quadrant
Im going to be getting a King Cobra clutch from astroperformance.com and was wondering if i should get an adjustable cable or new quadrant. BTW this will be my first clutch install.

RE: clutch quadrant
I'd get an adjustable quadrant. it's alittle tricky to un-install the old one however. you have to get on the floorboard of the drivers side and look up....obviously.
the stock quad. is held in by only like 3 bolts and a few cotter pins, but its a pain in the *** to wiggle it out of the cramped few inches that its in. unbolt the long shaft and try to unclip all of the cotter pins that hold the 2 gear lookin things together. once the cotter pins are out, the gears will come apart, and get the shaft out. then ur done taking the old out, just put the new one in. it's alot easier putting it in than it is taking it out.
