Sean,
If I understand you correctly,when you get enough free travel(clearance between TOB to press plate levers) you have trouble getting enough air gap(disc to flywheel) if that is the case, have you thought about moving the cable @ clutch fork or on pedal to change ratio so it would increase travel of TOB.
I have a assortment of holes on both sides of bellcrank and on pedal so I have a wide range of ratios on clutch linkage.
J&S,
The ratio of my linkage is slowed down right now to where my clutch engages when pedal is almost all the way out,it is so close to top about the time you think pedal is all the way out and it's not going to move it grabs.
Does'nt matter where pedal is as long as it's comfortable to you,ratio of linkage,amount of air gap changes where pedal is when it grabs,make sure you put a heavy duty return spring that pulls clutch fork back,without a spring it may not fully engage clutch,when my Mc Cleod soft locs are adjusted down to base press you can push press plate levers down with your thumb,they are too weak to push linkage,pedal,etc back,
Ratio of linkage will effect reaction time.
The way I have my micro switches when you adjust air gap,the switch is still set and does'nt have to be reset.
Instead of one micro switch use 2,one for line loc,one for 2 step on seperate circuits and then line loc and 2 step will work without having to flip any switches and only time 2 step will activate is when pedal is all the way down against stop.
I have my car so all you do is turn the key and go water,fuel pumps fans all come on w/key,have fans,water pump where can run w/key off also,and always wire gauge lights w/tail light/marker lights so if tail light is required during night racing they won't be forgotten,can't see gauges you don't forget tailights that way,my home track used to DQ for no tail light if their lights were on your tailights were supposed to be on,and that sucked to lose for no tailight.
