Also, I found the Fbody slave (as opposed to my current GTO one) at a local auto parts store for $67 bucks including the bearing. Now I just need to pick up a master cylinder, mounting bracket, and lines. Any suggestions on where to get it? I see Mcleod has them but they are expensive as usual. I suppose the adjustability would be nice though. Maybe I could just build adjustment in to my pedal? |
O'Beer Miester...keep your eyes peeled on the Corvette forum and LS1tech for lightly used LS7 take out clutches. There's some good deals on there from time to time.
Speedtech sells the firewall bracket which allows for the angled 4th gen clutch master to be used: http://www.speedtechperformance.com/...rod/prd256.htm OTOH, if you want an adjustable master ($$$), Tick or Macloed are your best options. Last point, I'm wondering if the Goat TO bearing is any different? I know there are specific part numbers for starters which makes me wonder if the Bell or tranny input shaft is different? Anyway I'm following along and rooting for your success! :cheers: |

I was actually just on the phone with speedtech and I think that's the way I'll go. They were nice enough to give me the part number for the GM master cylinder kit as wel. I'm pretty sure the difference in the Goat stuff is just the slave and possibly the slave hookup so I'm just changing all of that to F-body stuff. As far as I can find, that will work. GTO stuff is like twice as much as F-body stuff for some reason so I'll just convert to F-body where I can. I'm even thinking about converting the shifter location to F-body so I can run short throws that aren't outrageous as well. ETA: Just called up Jegs and got the bracket and master kit on order. The GM part number for the 4th Gen F-body master cylinder/resivoir/line kit is: 12570277 I love Jegs and just in case whomever is reading this didn't know, they can get pretty much anything even if it isn't on their website or in their catalog. Just ask them to find it for you. I was able to order the master cylinder kit for around $100 cheaper from them than my local GM stealership and even cheaper than the ebay sellers. I've never had a bad experience with Jegs yet. |
Oh,
And I just ordered this: http://www.thegearbox.org/catalog/it...17/7328789.htm Which is the part I need to move my shifter forward to the Fbody location. So that I can order this: http://www.mgwltd.com/camaro_short_throw_shifter.shtml When I get to that point. On another note, what transmission yoke did you guys use that are running the T56 in the firs gens? |

First time meeting Justin from Scott's he says, "man those guys like to give you a hard time!" :D :cheers: Glad you got a plan and you're rolling... |
Well,
I went ahead and ordered the trans-dapt stock location motor mounts, part number 4592. They were $64 so if they don't work like I want them to I'll get different ones or I'll just make my own plates to relocate everything since I'll have a pattern. So far, engine mounts have been my least favorite thing to shop for. Everybody and their brothers, sisters and extended family makes a mount and there's stories all over about one working and the other not in different applications. Screw it. I'm getting these and if I don't like it I'll get out the mill and a welder. |
Today I ordered a '69 Camaro 6 cyl. gas pedal so that I can connect by cable to my throttle body. I'll have to figure out which cable to use next.
I also splurged on the MGW short throw shifter. I know I shouldn't have and should have instead put that into a clutch but I'll be miserable without it. I'm spoiled after driving a Subaru 6 speed with a short throw for a few years. On an unrelated note, I finally bought a "Zerk Zapper" tool to try to get grease into the fittings of my old truck. After my clutch incident yesterday, I really need to get some grease into those things. |
Lokar
makes cable that will work. I like their (Lokar) gas pedal for a 1st Gen better than the stock 6 cylinder pedal as well.
Been there and done that. http://www.lokar.com/product-pgs/thr...le-cables.html http://www.lokar.com/product-pgs/dir...ro-pedals.html |
