    Default clutch adjustment (V8)

    I am hoping that someone out there might be able to help, I am after the pivot ball height and the pedal height from the floor on a vb-vk V8. I am in th process of fitting a T5 into my VL but it uses an aussie 4 speed bellhousing and i have fitted a vk v8 pedal box.
    If anyone can help it would be great
    Cheers Greg

    Clutch Pedal height from floor plan: 166-170mm
    Clutch medal height from carpet: 180-185mm

    Clutch pedal height is the distance from the floor to the top of the pedal (measured with the rubber pad removed)

    Or if your like me, just adjust it so it sits even or just above the brake pedal, but if you have a cable may aswell do it properly, mine will be done properly when i install new cable.

    [EDIT] 6cyl and V8 are the same according to the manuals, and pretty sure the cables are the same so that sounds right.
