Got the project running. Feel like I got a proper brake in on the motor. However the fun got cut short with a clutch that wouldn't let go. One of the few pieces I have yet to replace.
Rebuild kit or replace? I have heard of some fitment problems. Has any one ordered one recently?

I just did the one in my '70. Clutch master, slave, and hose. I ordered all new stuff from BP Northwest, and used their best quality stuff. It all fit nicely and seems to be working well -- best feeling clutch I've had on the car since I bought it. With the master, slave, hose, pushrod, and mounting hardware I was just under $200 for all the parts, worth every penny.

Unless you know the hose is new, do that as well while you're in there. I pulled the starter out to make room, and with that out the job wasn't too bad to do at all.

Need to be sure the master is the same. Many supply an after market cylinder...nos is getting more difficult to source. A crow foot will solve all your issues.

The master was last replaced around 08-09. Hose was done after that. I think a new slave might be worth trying. Thanks all.
