Hey,
For when i finish my pedal box, i'm going to need a longer clutch cable. Maybe a custom one. Are there places that could sell these? Or can i just used a suitable sheathed cable?
Cheers

Places that do kit car parts should do them.
They are the same design in principal as a universal cut to length throttle cable.
The thing you need to look at is thickness of thmd wire, they may be he same, but the mechanism on a clutch is heavier to operate than a throttle butterfly so the cable maybe thicker.

Yeah i was going to say if the cable will need to be of different composition or gauge than the throttle cable. I know it would be but what was the problem. Cheers, i'll get investigating. Finished my design for the box now, (which you can find in the pedal box thread)
