I've been told that the GM collar and hydraulic throwout bearing will work fine for my application, similar to what you have. When you ordered your ZR-1 kit, did it have individual part numbers for the hydraulic throwout bearing and collar? If so, could you share them? If not, what was the part # on your clutch kit? Thanks in advance for anything you an share on that.
I look forward to your write-up about this installation. I'll being doing a similar write-up so maybe we can compare notes and help each other out.

Chris, Thanks for the information on the remote bleeder line... I will definitely go with that set up. The part number for the ZR1 clutch kit I bought from Katech is KAT-A6184. The part number you listed for the hydraulic throwout bearing is correct. This throwout bearing is shorter to allow for the extra width of the ZR1 twin disc clutch. I took a couple pictures that show all the numbers on the GM throwout bearing that I received with the clutch kit. This weekend I should find out how the stack up comes out.
That would be great to compare notes as we go along on our builds... I will be following your thread
. Also, I have some pictures of a cold air intake that I built to draw air from the outside through the cowl induction hood that I will post up later.
