OK,here's what I'm working with.
These three balls ride up the ramps to push in/disengage the clutch. Not reversible. It will rotate backwards,but you're not using the ramps,so the clutch would be super abrupt. pretty much be like flipping a switch.
When the balls ride up the ramp it spreads the whole deal open pushing on the throwout. The stem that pushes doesn't touch the throwout during engine operation. No bearing there.
And it all rides behind this case,which is sealed.
Stock,the cable comes thru where the steel rod is. If I mount a pull type SC under the engine case it would be tight,but I think I can pack it in there. I'd like to run solid linkage,but if I run out of room I can make up a short cable to connect my clutch arm to the SC.
Crappy photoshop skillz. The red rectangle are s'posed to represent PUSH style SC's. If I flip the clutch actuating around I can get it into thos position. Ditch the outer cover and fab up mounts for a pusher SC. Exposed stuff is cool,but this would just stick out like a sore thumb and I'd most likely just beat it to death by accidentally kicking it all the time. Plus,it wouldn't clear my kick starter,which I kinda dig.
Another idea was to use a piton style and weld mounts to the clutch cover to hold it in place. I'd have to make some sort of pushrod to connect from the SC's piston to push on the throwout. That'd be easy enough,but the seal that goes here isn't really designed to operate around a spinning part like that. The stock pushrod stay stationary. The seal MIGHT hold up to the rpm's,but there's no way to stabilize whatever pushrod I'd make to keep it from flopping around. I guess I could make a bushing and press it in where the seal goes and then mount another seal outside all that. I dunno. A pull type just seems like the best option in this case. Thoughts? I'm wide open for idears!
