are these the cheapest for clutch install parts? This is all that's left on my checklist to get but money is starting to become an issue...
these are going in with a textralia clutch...
-01-02 Master cylinder ($144.43 through Fred Beans)
-ARP flywheel bolts ($24.88 through summit)
-ARP pressure plate bolts ($16.88 through summit)
-Pilot bearing ($11.13 through Fred Beans)
that's $197.32
that's not bad, but is there any other company(s) that has some of these parts cheaper?
thanks!

You're gonna wanna replce that slave cylinder too. Got mine from the local dealership. Gotta friend who's works there to hook me up. You gotta go flirt with the gals that work there and maybe get a hook up.

I'm searching under a 2002 Camaro Z28 or 2002 Corvette ZO6 and I'm finding the master cylinders for like under $100, some as low as like $40 through Advance.
I just want to know,
is it ok to go with a master cylinder from like Autozone, Advance kinda stores?
what's the difference between theirs and GM's? besides price of course.
AutoZone has one under "LUK" and one under "AMS" they are both $90 somethin

does anyone know if this one at NAPA will work on my TA?
http://www.napaonline.com/masterpage...aster+Cylinder
looks like the hose lines are different...
so that genuine GM master cylinder is probably the best one?

I would reccomend you going ahead to the Mcleod adjustable master cylinder. Mine was fine with bolt-ons, but the moment I tried to run it through the gears after the heads/cam, it wasnt up to par. I installed the Mcleod and it has never been better. It's a now or later mod, now will save you time and money in the long run.

I wish I had the money to but I don't. Textralia also doesn't recommend the McLeod with their clutches, although I don't really see a problem with it except the price. But if their oz700 model is well rated way above my HP levels with the upgraded oem hydraulics then shouldn't I be able to trust that?

cool. I appreciate the consideration. I think I'm going to end up buying a new stock master and see how that works. if it doesn't hold up, at least I won't have to pull the tranny to change it and stick one of those adjustables in there.

You can go to the dealer and get brand new flywheel bolts with loctite already on them for $7.77 for the set out the door and I'm sure new clutch bolts would probably cost about the same. So for about $170 you would have everything you need to install your clutch.

Type in 1998-2002 f-bodys, when the new menu comes up click on transmissions and you should find it by scrolling down the page. They have free shipping on most orders over $100 and their service is excellent

HMMMM, I 'm pretty sure I bought mine from speed inc, but your right , it is not listed, so I checked out Thunder Racing .com and they DO have them for $149.95. Just follow the same instructions I gave earlier and you will find them, sorry for the bad info!
