Well, I got my car running the other day, and I have been thinking a little about the clutch adjustment.
The Shop manual only spels out adjustment for free and total travel (although on a Mustang the total travel is fixed, as the stop is bolted in). Anyhow, the rod betwen the Z-bar and the clutch fork is adjustable, and the shop manual doesn't address this (the 65 manual shows a rod that doens't have the rocket nosecone on the end of it like mine). Can anyone shed some light on this? I suspect that between the two, I could change the 'gain' of the clutch adjustment.
