Hey guys,

Put a T56 in my 85 camaro. Same master cylinder but I put the 87 Cavalier Slave on it. I was told this works fine. Anyways, Ive been pumping and bleed and pumping and bleed and I am getting NOTHING out of the clutch. Wont budge. I hear fluid moving in the slave but no action from the slave. Any ideas or tricks to get this thing goin?

Thanks!

 

My guess is the master does not move enough fluid. A couple ideas to try. Best is to pressure bleed of you have a way to force pressure thru the clutch master cylinder reservoir. 2nd is vacuum bleeding with slave bleeder closed vacuum from master reservoir. 3rd gravity bleed. All these fail is $$$ but sure fix is a tick performance master but it's $3xx. It has a big bore and moves way more fluid. Also for the Caviler mc have a restriction in the line ( it will be where line leaves the mc) the 4th green ones do

 

Your post is lacking A LOT of detail.
LT1 T56, pull clutch and conversion flywheel?
85 pedals? Or some from a 4th gen?
Slave with a bleeder, or using the 93-97 F bleed method?

 

Thanks for the response guys. I bunch of people have done this same set up with third gen pedals and third gen master with the 87 slave and said it works fine. I got a mightyvac and get a bunch of air out of the system. The clutch is a little more stiff now but still have zero clutch movement.


It is 94 LT1 T56 with the a pull style clutch. The slave is a push style slave obviously. Not sure what you mean about conversion flywheel. I have a brand new RAM 93-97 flywheel. 85 pedals and 85 master. Slave has a bleeder but Ive bled it probably 25 times using the bleeder and someone else pumping and had zero luck. The mightvac helped a little

What is the 93-97 F bleed method?

Thanks!

 

Help? Anyone?
