    The one from MM has a unique shape to it where the cable rides, feels a good bit better than any others we've used in the past. Firewall adjuster ensures you get things dead nutz on (plus don't need to get up n under the car). Cable is said to be made by the OEM supplier to Ford. Can't say for sure but do know the kit works exactly as advertised.

    My luck is wonderful. Willing to roll the $150 dice on this if nothing more than to not have to crawl under car to adjust repeatedly, all the usual suspects out of stock on the kit.

    New Carbon Fiber Synchros for 2nd 3rd 4th gears is like getting a new transmission.
    They last me 3 years...shifting at 7000rpms....I changed them out last year
    and in 2 years I will change them out again, next new set already sitting in my garage....
    I don't change out 1st , 5th or reverse to avoid accidental shifting into those gears
    at speed....

    I'd love to have the T56 built to Viper spec, but unaware of anyone in my area I'd trust to do that.

    Well, full MM clutch cable/quadrant/adjuster is in the Vert. Can't say if it fixed the issue because there is no way on gods green and blue earth im driving it right now, but it definitely made the clutch pedal feel lighter/more sprung. So did something I guess? It spring yet....

    This purchase was entirely based on your recommendation lol. Gonna take some getting used to this clutch feel.

    Also per our convo about paying the wrong people to do work, the Ford Racing adjustable cable kit that was in the car, only one bolt in the firewall, adjustment nut was chewed to shit, no c clip in the bell housing, Only thing that sucks was the billet quadrant appeared to be a nice piece but wasn’t about to mix n match.

    I typically set clearance on firewall adjuster to about thickness of a Toonie, never tighter but can be looser to lower pedal.
    Hope you like it, Ross just ordered one for his car, have same in my own.

    Hmmm. Assuming you mean only enough threaded out to allow for the edge of a toonie? Looks like I'll have to double check my routing I guess. It had to come out much more than that to even pick up the slack on the cable, and that's with the spacer on the cable at the quadrant.
