hi there this is my first post and i need help
i just swap a t-56 in my 86 iroc but the slave cylinder wont fit in the bilhousing and i dont now how to fill and bleed the master and slave cylinder and this is the first time i work with manual transmission .
i am in kuwait and i am the first here how do the lt1 and t-56 swap so its very hard and thank for you all how post her because without you i cant do any thing and forgive for spiling

 

OK, what bellhousing are you using? Does the car have the original '86 V8 motor? You will do this just fine--have patience.

 

i have lt1 engen and t-56 orginal belhousing but the rod in the center of te slave cylinder is to long so i cant bolt the slave to the belhousing i need to now how to bush this rod in the cylinderand thanks for the reply

 

You need a lt1 bellhousing . It includes a spacer for the slave setup.

 

q8iroc--listen to Pasky. The T56 does not fit the early V8 bellhousing you have. You need the LT1 bellhousing or a Weir bellhousing.
Is your T56 bolting up to your bellhousing? Is the only problem the slave cylinder? Then you already have an LT 1 bellhousing and this can be worked out. Many people on this site know much more than me about this--it will work out.

 

its lt1 belhousing (the rod in the center of te slave cylinder is full out so i cant bolt the slave to the belhousing i need to now how to bush this rod in the cylinder)and i have the spaser

 

Ok, just pu the spacer on the bellhousing, make sure the clutch fork is grabbing the yoke (throw out bearing). The way to check if its seated on the throw out bearing correctly is to push it forward, if it falls lower, its not on right and you will bend your cylinders. Just ask me how I know =/ Seat it correct and put the slave cylinder on and just push it against the fork, the pushrod on the slave will compress and get the two nuts on the studs and tighten it up. Test your work after everything is tightened by sitting in the car and pressing the clutch pedal. If everything is okay, it will push to the floor without any resistance. If you find the pedal is extremely hard to push DO NOT FORCE IT TO THE FLOOR. The fork has moved and is out of position if this is the case. If you force it you will bend your master cylinder's pushrod. Just ask me how I know .

 

thank you all
