I've got a goodridge braided clutch line.
I fitted it while the engine is out, but it doesn't look like its going to come close to the slave cylinder.
Has any one else got one fitted?
Braided clutch line?

I made my own out of Goodridge parts (before I started using BMRS).
But I was tricky. I rotated the Slave Cylinder through 180 degrees, and installed an M10x1.0 Male to AN-3 Male adaptor, then made up the line with an M10x1.0 female on the hard line end (to master cylinder) and a AN-3 female at the slave cylinder end. Works a treat, just harder to bleed.

Is it one of these you bought??

if it was, i bought the same one and there was no way in hell it was going to fit,
the guy sent me another one out, but it was exactly the same,
so i had to do the same as djs325 there
rotate the cylinder and make up some adapters for it to fit!!

I bought one from ebay and it didn't fit. I'll end up getting a new metal brake pipe made that a bit longer than the original.

There's no reason why I can't get a batch of them made to the correct length in the next couple of weeks if enough people would want them.
