anyone convert to mechanical linkage on our cars? or sell a kit? well i know of 2 cars that have done this. Madman did one of them, then the other car pretty much was converted copying what Madman did.
sorta in depth, swapping stuff, and fabbing stuff. no surprise, but what I am wondering is if anyone knows of a company that makes a kit from start to finish.
it would be nice to utilize the stock pedals, but that may not be feasible. all i know is Madman is one creative master fabricator! too bad i don't live down in Louisiana.

I did mechanical on a 95 T56.
- copy the 82-83 f-body crap but refine it by straightening the bellcrank tube
- pedals are useable, just mock the earlier stuff
- replace the bell w/ scattershield, add fork opening to it
- tig a ballstud mount for the fork
The devil's in the details but since I copied production parts and geometry with regard to functionality, I can buy a push clutch & TOB anywhere.
