I have really been looking for a system to use to replace my hydraulic clutch setup.
The idea of using an air cylinder to operate my clutch is appealing to me. I am sure an air cylinder would have enough power but the idea of being able the modulate the clutch is a sticking point. The reason I think it might be doable is there are so many air ride system being sold with a lot of R&R already completed.
The idea of being able to release the clutch with control is the problem. Any of you guys have any thoughts? Sure I might be able to set a fixed rate of engagement and that might work. I mean once you depress the clutch a switch would open the air charge to the cylinder, that part is a snap. Now when engaging the clutch one could have a set rate and you could then modulate that simply by depressing the clutch quickly if needed. Then you could have any pedal tension you want. Again I am trying to civilize the car a bit more. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif)
