Requesting OEM Clutch Line Specifications
 

I'm having Essex Parts make me a custom Spiegler braided clutch line and I need to know the specifications of the OEM clutch line in order for Essex Parts to make the new line. Does anyone know the OEM clutch line fitting types and sizes along with the hose inner diameter and overall length? I know I could send them my OEM clutch line an an example, but I don't want my car be inoperable while the new one is being made.

Thanks for any help in advance!

Are you planning to make you brake lines too?
Why dont you just buy one braided, probably much more safer?

Do someone know how much fluid you need when swapping clutch line?

Essex Parts sells Spiegler braided brake lines and, while more expensive than some, they are top quality. I know that can buy ready-made braided lines, but I just wanted all my hydraulic lines to match. I know, my OCD is getting the best of me...

My bad, somehow I missed Essex and Spiegler in the first post.
Pity that Spiegler brake lines goes for $330 with shipping + 36% import duties & taxes here, so I will be getting HEL for £69.
Clutch line HEL for £25.

Do you really need Spiegler for clutch line? How much will it cost?

No, I really don't need a Spiegler line - there are a lot of ready-made lines available for about $50, and the Spiegler line will probably end up costing about twice that amount. Truth be told, it's a dumb purchase and it's more about just wanting one, making something just for me, and having all my lines match - for an extra $50, it's not the end of the world.

That said, I may still get flamed for being a dummy!

is there even a benefit of switching to braided SS lines for the clutch cylinder? I would assume it's just for aesthetics since I don't think it would expand like the brake lines

Nah, ...... OCD must be a very serious disorder ....... and expensive and time consuming to treat ....... :sigh:

Heck, I'd buy one from a dealer ..... send it to your supplier to use as a template .... then take it back to the dealer for a refund ........ :popcorn:
