Default Help me choose a clutch cable setup.

Hey kids.

After I converted from a 11" to a 10.5" clutch and changed from a high pedal effort pressure plate to a low effort plate and a full kevlar friction disc and aluminum flywheel, there's almost nothing left of my stock clutch but the cable.

Now I've installed more cables than I care to recall, and quadrants and adjusters but I never really figured out what parts were any good. I like the stock setup so I'm not really keen on having to change but it seems I do have to change now.

I'd like to use my stock cable if at all possible.

Fire away.

BTW... like a moron I haven't told you what I want to fix... Pedal travel before engagement. I can use the stock ratchet but not properly and I would rather something pretty looking.

MM has their quadrant/fire wall adjuster and Steeda has theirs. I'm running the MM and the only thing that pisses me off about it is that when installing it, they sent me a rubber bushing that was to large so I had to sand it down.

I have the MM quadrant and adjuster as well. Works great and yes you use the stock cable.
