Re: non-pneumatic "kicking" mechanism
we got our clutch working. all it needed was a bigger pneumatic to disengage it! and some grease.
it kicked ~30 ft at max power.
hint on our clutch- a poor gen2 tranny got extreme modded, andy baker would either laugh or cry...
edit- what the heck, ill say more:
what we did:
removed high gear from genII to make the secdond speed nuetral
dremeled down dogs so they have 30 degree edges (make it so crowbar is not needed to shift)
modded plates and shafts to accept a window motor.
upgraded to a beefier piston.
now it works great. we chained it to an 8" performance wheel as a spool. and the kicker is powered by 2 bands of surgical tubing.
