Hey all, Just finished my
complete nut / bolt resto / rebuild 1985 911 Targa. The engine is heavily modified and with also upgraded fresh 915. I've installed a Sachs 'Super' clutch, all components are new, rebuilt pedal box, cables, etc.
I'm currently working out tuning / driving / suspension bugs.
The issue is heavy clutch effort. I replaced all the related springs and adjusted it per the factory manual. The problem is not so much for me but comfort level for my wife who is petit. I know it is going to be an issue. Really I would like to see less pedal effort as well.
Looking at the whole OE system, it seems to me there would be easier solutions than installing a whole aftermarket hydraulic conversion, which is something that I will not do. To me, if clutch long arm was @1" longer at the end where the cable hook goes and the short actuator arm was, say, 1/2"-5/8" shorter at the contact point that would be enough increase in leverage W/O sacrificing travel.
Has anyone else thought of this or make something along these lines?
