Danno74Z Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 About two years ago a thread was started about the use of a hydraulic throw out bearing replacing the mechanical parts i.e. fork, slave cylinder, and TO bearing. That topic sort of died without any conclusions and I'm very interested in pursuing the hydraulic system on my conversion. I never really liked the pull system on the LT1/T56 and I'm hoping someone here has done this conversion. I believe the LS1 with the manual tranny comes from the factory with this setup so perhaps the LS1 conversion folks have some knowledge in this area they could share. I know Cartek Racing makes a system for the LS1, but from the description of the product, I can't tell if it's only for the LS1 or the LT1 too. I have a call into them. Thanks, Danno74Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeromio Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 That pic you have shows a stock LS1 T56 hydro setup. I have this on my car. It is a pain in the ass. You want to adjust? Too bad. Gotta pull the tranny. You have a leak? Pull the tranny. You need to bleed? Big mess. I really wish I could use a normal, external slave.
