So far i got the hardest part the trans i need some pricing info, can anyone give me an idea on how much a clutch fork and the slave, and master cylinder go for? i heard they come pre bled if i get them from the dealer? also will 3rd gen pedals work with the 4th gen hydos??

Birmass

cylinders - $125 from the dealer, pre bled and assembled

Clutch fork shouldn't be too bad. It's just a peice of metal

You can use 3rd or 4th gen pedals, but the 3rd gen pedals must be the hydraulic type. I'm not sure of the year they changed from mechanical to hydraulic.

Thanks for the info, my luck the dealer will rip me on the fork. the last fork i got they tried to charge me 110 bucks for a v-8 fork for a t-5, i could only imagine what they want for the t-56.

Birmass is correct. By the way, if you use 4th gen pedals, you have to cut the gas pedal off of the assymbly, cause the 3rd gens include the gs pedal seperately.

Get the hydraulics from a GM dealer. Dont break the plastic band that holds the slave shaft in. Just bolt the slave up and the first time you press the pedal, the strap breaks and everything is ready to go.

they swapped from mechanical clutch linkage to hydraulic in 84.

FORMULA JOE!!!! Did you mean to leave the strap on inside the trans?? Are you sure?? My clutch pedal has a very short movement and I took the strap off. I'm wondering if the extra thickness of the strap would make the clutch feel better and have a longer travel. Should I put it on? Thanks!

SLP sells a kit for this conversion,not sure on the price though.It could be $$$,but it beats the aggravation of finding it all seperatly.....if you have the cash.
