Couple of footery bits but nowt to tax ye, if you can changed a heater resistor you can do this An makes it cheaper too

Is that for the sheddist kit too? I've got one sitting in my bedroom but im nervous about fitting it myself. Most technical stuff ive done is change a jet in my old CVH engine. Its one of those jobs if you start you have to finish, and im a bit worried i wont reach the finishing part of the job lol.

It can, if you can get hold of the fitting instruction PDF file (someone on here has it) theres a whole page telling you how to adjust the pedal height and fine tune the biteing point.

The replacement clevis for the clutch pedal is adjustable so you can raise and lower teh biting point (making sure clutch still operates correctly of course) The pedal will have some slack at it's highest point, you can take this out with the pedal stop which you can remove spacers from to get desired height

Ah sweet, makes sense. I'll make sure what I knock up does the same I'll make two kits to begin with so will need someone to be a test dummy as well. I don't see there being any problems though.

wot he said............

IIRC you first set it so the clutch engages and dis-engages, then you adjust the peddle height.
