Safir/Quaife Clutch fork Shaft

It's a standard Girling slave cylinder unit (as used on the Hewland MK9) with a 7/8" bore, R/H inlet (note, they come as R/H and LH inlet units). Your bell housing has the bores for the 2 mounting bolts (as seen in your picture) . I used a shim to make sure the cylinder push rod goes in straight and is of proper length. I use a modified adjustable push rod from the Jaguar E-Type (S1). Of course, you'll need to flip the clutch lever from the position shown in your picture ;-).
