coffeekid Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I have a 360S - clutch bite point is very high - almost at the limit of travel. Given my limited knowledge I dont know if this is normal or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim 123 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Does not sound typical. In the rest position where does the clutch pedal sit relative to the brake pedal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Not a bad thing as this offers a shorter clutch travel for rapid shifts, what size master cylinder are you running, CC used to use the .6" but I used a .7" on mine for a shorter travel but marginally firmer pedal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vine Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Has this suddenly happened or has it always been like that? It's possible to alter the bite point by adjusting the position of the clevis on the threaded piston rod: The bore of the standard Duratec clutch master cylinder is 5/8". There's a 0.7" version (used, I believe, on Sigmas). However, CC advised me some time ago that they don't recommend it on a Duratec as there's a risk of over-extension of the clutch slave cylinder due to the higher volume of fluid expelled.JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 John Even with the 5/8" bore there is a risk of over extension, as another member found out.... a correctly adjusted clutch stop should always be fitted to prevent this.Raceline also use the .7" on Duratec's for the same reason I mentioned too.

John Vine Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Thanks, Neil. That's interesting. Agree about the clutch stop.JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
