OK i wanna remove my clutch piping tubeand install a steel braided line from the operating cylinder to the hard line where thepiping tube was.I have been having problems bleeding the system, and now it wants to grind going into 1st and reverse, as not enough pressure...im assuming!

I was wondering if this is the correct way to do this?

seems correct...

try gravity bleeding 1st or bleeding @ the master cylinder><fitting on the braided steel line (like what you do w/ the master brake cyl, mebbe?)

I found the steel braded clutch line not long enough to bypass that.

I had a few other people on another site, tell that i had to bend the hard line going to the piping loop, bend it to where the OEM rubber line connets to the piping loop.

i've read somewhere else in this forums about a newere/ longer version coming out to replace the shorter one you recently purchased (52" vs. the 44" you got). but they said it shouldn't be a problem....

lemme go search for that thread (but my search skillz sux, so it'll be a while)
