Clutch house rooting questions

[Breiti]

As some of you know, I switch from automatic to 4 speeds shift.
Got a late trans with closed bell housing getrag.

The question is, how is the "break line" and the hose between clutch cylinders are rooted?

Think, I need a hose like this 21521116422 ?

And what else?
Pics how installed?

Thx for your help

The clutch metal pipe on my RHD goes across the bulkhead along with the brake pipes.
then down on the left hand side of the trans tunnel, then joins a flex hose to connect to the slave cylinder.
Sorry I don’t have pictures at the moment.

Oh, i have a LHD, sorry i dont tell...

I took some pictures prior to disassembly, but they do not show the master or slave cylinder fully. You can see the fluid pipe that transits from the master through a guide bracket. What is shown is for a 1972 with original 4 speed manual transmission. If installing a 5 speed (which am doing), then a longer hose will need to be sourced.

thx for the Pics, but is that a closed Bellhousing? it seams like it is a open?
I look for the late version with closed bellhousing.

I have seen mine is open your closed,
any case the hose you propose seems too short for your case

Hose for clutch 1973 up (VIN beginning with 43...), total length 370 mm, you need 1 for 1 car

Thx.

I've never seen that setup, they all seem to only have a flexible direct line from the master cylinder to the slave.

While you’re at it, check to make sure the gas line(s) and/or electrical wires are not rubbing on the steering shaft and being abraded.

I have seen it but don't found it anymore.

Hi. I did the bracket with a hard line to a flexible hose on my E3.
I do have the closed clutch housing.

 

[E3AV]

Not the best picture. This is not my car but an E12. Will be similar.

 

[Breiti]

That is what I'm looking for, thx. @E3AV
