Hey all,
I have finally finshed my engine swap of the 2.3l sco motor into my 71 triumph. The motor is a total rebuild with pistons made by diamond racing. Im using a t5 out of a 93 mustang mated up to a a r200 differential ala Goodparts. Clesrence are good and preliminary test running it up and down the street are good.

Im finding the clutch pedal really heavy. I used a miata clutch slave with the stock triumph hydraulic master. Anyone know of a straight bolt up for the triumph master that will give me a bit of an easier time? Thanks

Wilwood or Tilton. Find out the bore of the Miata one and get that size to match the slave. For instance the TR may be 3/4" and the Miata 5/8".
