No photo but there is a clevis that attaches to the pedal that then pulls on the cable.

i found with the original clevis i kept braeking them with the big clutch.

i made one from a bit a 20mm x 10mm steel bar.

it's on the car right now but i'll rip it off a get some pics if anyone is interested. I also made about 5mm shorter to help with a problem i was having after fitting the yellaterra steel flywheel and V8 exedy sportstuff clutch to my XR6

there is a hole in your clutch fork... a rubber backed hook goes in that hole sorta like your thumb would but with a hook at the end...

i couldnt find one doing my manual conversion, fruad has them from mem it was like $13, ask for a clutch for hook, they should understand you.
