    Errol, the pic of the pedal mount was from Barrman in post 15 and 17: Another change of plans... 6.2 Hyd Clutch?

    I did pretty much the same thing
    Thanks, George

    I'm sorry sir, I meant the 'Brake' hydro linkage..

    BUT, nonetheless Those pics were GREAT! I didn't need my cheaters and they weren't blurry..

    Mine was setup for a GM drive train and only had two pedals (the other was behind the seat). SO, a little 'look-see' is in order.

    No smoke today. I just need to get battery cables crimped and put some fuel in the tank to fire it up.

    • still need to mount the new radiator
    • make a clutch rod from the slave to the fork
    • mount the battery tray
    • remount front clip
    Thanks, George

    I am getting close, but its 2 steps forward, 1 step back. I put coolant in the radiator, and heard the drip drip drip sound... this summer one of the kids knocked something of the shelf in the garage, and it knocked into the radiator, and left a dent. It looked like it was ok, but apparently not. I'll be taking that out to see if I can get it tig'ed

    I was going to wait to crank it over until I had coolant in it, but said "what the heck". Well it cranked, but the starter didn't engage the flywheel. I thought that I had the right starter, but it looks like it is an auto trans starter...

    No smoke until after Christmas
    Thanks, George

    Seems like I always take 1 step forward and 2 back....... what is the secret to your success?

    Smoke for Christmas would be a great gift indeed. Hang in there. Looking forward to a status report!!!
