Did the old manuals have hydo clutches ? I really love wheeling with a manual but I really hate hydro clutches. I am thinking about building up an old gen and I am trying to get ideas for the drivetrain.

I am 99% Sure My Girls 84 has a Hydro Clutch, I won't swear to it as it has been years since I seen it. In my minds eye it is right there on the firewall.
