| MustangSteve's 65-68 Mustang CABLE CLUTCH CONVERSION |
| ANOTHER TOTALLY NEW MustangSteve Designed PRODUCT !!! Fits 64-1/2 to 68 Mustangs (and other Fords using similar clutch pedal) Will NOT fit 69-70 Mustang due to cowl floor differences. This kit will allow you to modify your clutch pedal to a later model type quadrant setup for use in installation of a cable operated clutch, especially useful when installing a late model T-5 or Tremec manual transmission. Unlike any other aftermarket cable clutch conversion, this fully welded quadrant kit offers several advantages: Welded construction will never come loose from constant use. No underdesigned clevis or other small parts to wear out or break (cable attachment points) Click pic for lg view of the "other guy's" cable clutch setup after ONE YEAR of normal use..... Pulls the cable with a constant radius, unlike the single lever type - keeps cable pulling straight from cable housing. Transfers forces to the cable directly in line with the clutch pedal - no twisting motion to bend the arm. A whole lot cheaper to install - the do-it-yourselfer can build it for the price of a quadrant plus the cost of a new cable. Fits with the MustangSteve POWER BRAKE BOOSTER conversion (visit the Power Brake Conversion page) FIts with MustangSteve BALL BEARING CLUTCH PEDAL SHAFT Conversion (visit the Ball Bearing Clutch Pedal page) Virtually eliminates clutch chatter caused by loose clutch actuation linkage. YES, it takes a bit more effort to install this conversion, but you already know that the easiest stuff is seldom the best. This setup requires you to remove the clutch pedal, (but not the hanger assembly), for installation of the quadrant. You need to take the pedal out to replace bushings and get rid of those big springs anyway when converting to cable operation. You will be rewarded by years of trouble free service and simple cable replacement access should you ever need to replace the cable. The MustangSteve CABLE CLUTCH CONVERSION will make your car feel like a modern car with a smoothly operating clutch. Later model 10" or 10-1/2" diaphragm type clutch is recommended for best results. FORD RACING King Cobra works great. (10-1/2" clutch requires late model bolt pattern on flywheel.) 157 tooth billet steel flywheels are $249 with 28 oz. balance. These are available special order - just ask. |

The cable comes through the firewall through a 1/2" hole just under the cowl floor. Cable is the same dimension/design as the Ford Racing factory type cable (with the rubber grommet removed) mounted in a bracket that bolts to the flange where the cowl and firewall are welded together. Cable travels down to the bellhousing right behind the shock tower. Typical routing is from firewall, cable goes past master cylinder, then down between the steering box and the shock tower (to rear of tower), then over towards the motor mount, then along the ol pan rail back to the bellhousing. |
| The welded quadrant always keeps the cable pulling straight from the end of the cable housing, in a constant radius. There are no underdesigned clevis pins to wear out. There is no chance the arm will bend since it is straight above the pedal arm. Unlike this sturdy quadrant, an arm that reaches across the top of the pedal hanger will bend just like the original Z-bar linkage did. |

| The quadrant kit is designed to be used with a T-5 or Tremec conversion and a cable clutch. If you want to use the cable clutch with an original Mustang standard transmission, you will have to do a little fabrication. In order to make the cable clutch work with the original type bellhousing, you must install a cable type release arm and a new pivot bolt (fulcrum) in the bellhousing. You will need a Mr. Gasket replacement fulcrum bolt and a Ford release arm from a 87-93 5.0 Mustang originally equipped with a T5. You will need to have an aluminum plate welded into the bellhousing and then thread a 1/2" hole in the plate for the new fulcrum bolt. You will also need to fabricate a cable housing stop to go outside the bellhousing. I have another web page that shows how I did this on a steel scattershield. For more info on how to convert a scattershield or bellhousing from old style linkage to CABLE CLUTCH, see my web page on the subject. CLICK HERE |

| Bolts to Firewall flange as shown. Positions the cable so it clears power brake booster. Simple two bolt installation. Back of bracket rests against the curved area of the firewall, with the curve giving the area even more strength than just the bracket alone. This cable stop / firewall brace will not flex and gives a very solid cable mounting point for your T-5 or Tremec conversion. |

| The CK165M is the most popular setup. It gives you new ballbearing hung pedals, power brakes, and adjustable cable clutch. Add a California Pony Cars T5 conversion crossmember for only $139.00 more. Shipping on the crossmember is FREE if ordered with the CK-165M kit. SPECIFY YEAR |
| Even with power brake booster, this setup maintains more than ONE INCH clearance between dual piston master cylinder and shock tower! |
| Although this kit fits the T-5 and Tremec factory cable type bellhousing, SOME HEADERS MAY INTERFERE WITH THE CABLE AT THE BELLHOUSING / CABLE AREA. Tri-Y headers are especially problematic, but can be modified by relocating one of the tubes. When using a 351W, the Heddman long tube headers fit like they were made specifically for this application, and their shorty headers fit great, too. Stock manifolds present no problems. These coated high performance headers pictured at the right were built in conjunction with the MustangSteve cable clutch kit. They are available from FORD POWERTRAIN APPLICATIONS.
