Clutch Rod Adjustment Advice

Hi Guys

 

I've replaced a couple of these before, but had my 3rd failure recently. Decided it was time to go the whole hog and put in the Custer Rod ... I also had a friend who works in the racing world make me a high tensile forged steel piston rod :D

 

Anyway, I'm putting it back in the car tomorrow, and wanted some advice on adjustment. Does the position of the piston in the rod make any difference to the biting point on the clutch?

 

I want the biting point higher than it was ... and I was trying to mentally work out do I have the piston sticking out further, or less ... to get the bite higher or lower? Then I confused myself ... so thought I'd ask my learned friends on here?

 

Cheers

Andre

After 3 failures myself, I added the custer rod. It worked perfectly and never had a problem again. When I put mine in, I just set the pin in the same position as the original....the way it was set at the factory.
