Wedge Manual TR8

pm me your email address and I will try and send you some files. Although, for some reason I haven't figured out how to get them to work on windows vista operating system, they worked on windows xp. normally I am a mac user.

I do notice a difference in the pedal boxes between my fhc ('76) and my dhc ('81). I didn't measure, the foot position feels different -- more cramped on the fhc.
 
I just jumped on the thread, if you let me know what your looking for I will put my son right on scanning the pages and see if we can email them to you tonight. I had kind of not planned to send the manual to get scanned until I was parking the 8 for the year
 
It turns out the clutch master is almost if NOT exactly like the 6's. So I used my 6 Bentley book on it. So that brings up a question. Didn't they up size the master on the later 6's to a .75 bore to make it easier to use the clutch? Do you think you can substitute the 6 master for the TR7/8's 5/8 bore to get an easier operating clutch?
 
Sorry, you are tallking way over my head on this one. I do have the manual though

It's the other way around. The MC bore went down, to reduce pedal pressure. Bigger MC bore equals more force (but more movement at the slave).
