Reply to "What is the Throw/Distance (inch or cm) of the clutch slave cylinder?"

I'll post this but I doubt if it helps anyone.

going through posts here and various list of info I found the following comments

An OEM Pantera Clutch Master Cylinder bore measured 0.7465 inches (18.96 mm) and had a max stroke 1.25 inches (31.74 mm)

Informed by John Beckman stroke was 1.125”

An OEM Pantera Clutch Slave Cylinder bore measured 1.000 inches (25.4 mm) and had a max stroke 1.625 inches (41.27 mm)

OEM slave cyl bore is 1".  Max stroke is 1.625".Long throw slave cyl bore is 0.75".  Max stroke is 1.125

now, I made some notes taking a hydrualic engineer approch to look at volumes and force transfers





OEM MC volume (0.75/2)^2 X 3.147 X 1.25 = 0.5532

OEM SC stroke 0.5532/(1.00/2)^2 X 3.147 = 0.703

LT SC stroke 0.5532/(0.75/2)^2 X 3.147 = 1.25

OEM MC volume (0.75/2)^2 X 3.147 X 1.125 = 0.498

OEM SC stroke 0.498/(1.00/2)^2 X 3.147 = 0.633

Force calculation

Pedal to Master cylinder 7:1

Master cylinder to slave 1.78:1 (ratio of areas)

Slave to TOB 1.38:1 (inverse of 0.725:1)

Therefore pedal to TOB 17.2:1

thus 10 pounds on clutch pedal gives 172 pounds at TOB



I;ll keep looking to see if I ever wrote something in lay terms
