I have a 69 Chevelle 396 SS with a 4-spd and I'm looking for a link or a write-up or at least a couple pointers on how you adjust the clutch on this vehicle. This is my first vehicle that does not have a hydraulic clutch system so I am a little lost. Any help would be much appreciated!!!! Thanks!!!:notworthy:

If you want to, if you want to wait until I screw it up tonight I'll probably be wanting the picture tomorrow. But if you have time today go ahead and post it up! Thanks!!!

OK, I can get some tonight and put them on later, do you need to set up the whole linkage or just adjust the firmness of the peddle?

Well, I'm not real sure yet. I really think the clutch needs replaced but I want to make sure it's not an adjustment problem first. So whatever all that is...

On my Camaro, it's all in the way the linkage is set up. Make sure the geometry is right and all the parts are good.
