Clutch Cable Kits (CK165/CK167) Installation Instructions

69-70 Specific Clutch Cable Diagrams

63-65 Falcon Clutch Cable Supplement

Q: Is the clutch pedal and pedal stop included?

They're optional add-ons on this kit rather than mandatory inclusions. If your factory pedal and stop are in good shape you can reuse them, but many customers add the matched pedal/stop since they're engineered for correct cable quadrant travel and clearance.

Q: How does one kit cover 65-66 cars and 67-69 cars, since the cowl floors differ?

The 67-69 kits now use the same firewall mounting block as the 65-66 kit, with an added spacer to account for the firewall differences between those body styles. That lets one core design cover the range instead of requiring completely separate firewall hardware for each year.

Q: Does this fit cars other than Mustang, like my Cougar?

Yes, this kit is also used on Cougars and other Ford platforms that share the same firewall and pedal box design as the 65-69 Mustang - double-check the full fitment list or ask us to confirm your specific year/model before ordering.

Q: What headers and cable routing actually work well with this kit?

Long-tube headers aren't recommended with this kit - they commonly route close enough to the cable and quadrant that the housing can rub against the primary tubes, and sustained heat will melt the cable's outer liner and cause a rock-hard or binding pedal. Shorty or mid-length headers designed for cable-clutch clearance are the safer choice. If long tubes are unavoidable, route the cable away from the header path as much as possible and wrap any section that must pass nearby in heat-resistant sleeving, maintaining at least 2 inches of clearance from the header or exhaust.
