Ive seen talk before of changing the clutch master in order to make the clutch pedal lighter. Anyone done it.

I notice that Jay Ester changed the pivot point on his brake pedal..... looks like an easy way around lighter pedals.

Anyone else tried this?

Grant, I have changed my master cylinder to a 5/8" and it is much more user friendly.
No matter how you may find the clutch on an Ultima, pleas don't even think of replacing it with a Lotus hehe

I did the same, much better. Dont forget that you get less "travel" at the clutch end, but this is a good thing.

I think the original is 3/4" (you need a smaller master cylinder to give a "lighter" pedal)

You are indeed correct Mike yes ( I do wish that I had paid more attention at school ).

I've made the switch. It's a very good mod. Also means that I don't over travel the release fork so that it hits the flywheel bolts...
