Thinking ahead to the next big project. I have gathered up most of the Tbird parts for a T-5 conversion; bell housing, clutch linkage, brake and clutch pedal assembly, etc. Plan on using Mummerts conversion kit. Has anyone used a hydraulic clutch recently and if so how difficult is it to do? Also are there any clearance issues with Sanderson headers and the stock clutch linkage?

Mark;

I agree with you about the booster and valve cover clearence on my friends car. I don't know what he was thinking. The motor is a 390 (I think) so maybe they don't have to be lifted as high to come off the heads.

Are you doing the Granada conversion with "Drop & Stop" spindles and parts or are you making up your own? The new owner of Drop and Stop has a few sets of braided stainless brake lines if you want to upgrade from the rubber ones. I bought a set because my rubber lines were chafing on the frame a bit.
