V6 hydro setup the same as V8 T5 hydro?
Is the V6 hydro setup on the 3rd gens the same as the V8 hydro setups? Or are they different?
Thanks in advance for any info.
BTW, I did try searching but couldn't find any info.

I'm assuming you're talking about a hydraulic clutch?
The master and slave should be the same

Thanks.
Yes, I was meaning the hydro clutch (T5) setups.

Stephen's reply is correct. You will need to get a V8 bellhousing and release fork though. You can see the difference between the two bellhousings at a glance, and even though the release forks look similar, the V6 one supposedly has a different throw/angle, along with a different part #.

Thanks. I was looking at possibly buying the master/slave/and hose assembly from a V6 T5 just for a spare and didn't know if they were the same as the V8 ones. The one I was looking at has already sold as a complete T5 swap, but I was just showing interest in case the seller ended up selling some of the components seperate.
Again, thanks for the info though, since now I will know
