I am just a “student” and have yet to have any real experience with this clutch , but looking forward to it.
From what I have gathered from my “engineering” point of view;
The OEM master cylinder is a 0.75” diameter with a 1.125” stroke. Thus about 0.5 cubic inches of fluid transfer
The OEM slave cylinder is a 1” diameter with a 1.625” stroke. With the 0.5ci from the MC going full stroke, the slave active stroke is only 0.63”.
The slave to ToB lever ratio is such that the total TOB travel is 0.46”. thus the clutch compression mercal spring, plus the initial over travel to touch fingers (0.06") and the over travel to ensure disengaged (0.04")must be less than that stroke
