you just bolt the throttle body to where your clutch fork is, you eliminate your clutch fork and slave cylinder. there is 4 bolts, you have to purchase the hardware because the stock ones are to small. then run the steel braided line to the existing clutch line where the slave line was. you do not need to run any of the shims. and the pedal stop you can screw where the plastic screw for the carpet is behind the clutch pedal. i made something with a welder and a bolt. to set the pedal stop you have to first have to jump the pins in the clutch switch to start the car. then adjust pedel stop with the pedal depressed the car should go into gear fine and about 1/4 to 1/2 inch off the stop you should not be able to put into gear. make sure its not to much off the stop becasue u will push the fingers into the disks. anwser your ??'s

after the clutch starts to break in you maybe have to mess with the pedal stop if it starts to lock you outta gear. and another thing your going to have to vacuum bleed the system to get pedal pressure or your going to be there for years!

I wouldn't believe that. Ptt specifically states to have one in instructions and several people point out not to forgot a pedal stop
