Well drilled out the line, now after holding down the quick connect fitting to flush it out, the black spring part will not come all the was back flush, tryed over a hour to get it to come up whole way, looks like I'll have to switch out the lines, and do the mod again after I take the old master off the car, any suggestions?. THanx for your intput.

good luck, and as for the drill mod. lol, I haven't done it and my driveline mechanic who has been working on LSx only cars for around 6 years now told me he does not recommend it. He says if you bleed it properly and your clutch components are good, then you won't have a problem. But on another note, good luck with that CenterForce, especially on a H/C car. Made that mistake once, won't happen again.

Drill it. If you drive spiritedly at all just drill it, you wont regret it. If you dont drill it you will in a few thousand miles when you are swapping out your new smoked clutch. Good luck...

What's the problem with the centerforce? I'm getting ready tommorrow to put the thing in, doesn't look anymore difficult to do than other clutch brands.

I havent seen, Ive only heard about the weights on the pressure plate make high rpm shifting tough on the hyd throw out system. Hope that helps, follow the directions in your centerforce kit and you shouldnt have any troubles.

Good luck to ya..
