Attaching a T10 or Muncie to a LS or LQ engine This works on an 03 LQ4 and 07 LY6. I just put a Super T10 on my LY6 and couldnt find much info on the hydraulic clutch so I'll post what I did here in case someone else is looking to do the same thing. I was scared of the hydraulic tob setup not working but it was super easy.
Here are the parts I used:
Hydraulic throw out bearing: Howe 82870 $150
Bleeder line and starter line: Howe 8287 $55
Extended pilot bearing: GM 12557583 $20
Fitting: Earls 968704ERL
^From starter line 8287 (-4an) to 1/8 NPT
Fitting: Wilwood 220-0628
^From Earl fitting above to 3/8 -24 inverted flair
3/4" Bore Master Cylinder: Wilwood 260-1304 $50 amazon
12" clutch kit: Centerforce DF612909 $390
.200" flywheel: Mcleod 460536 $150 on ebay forever
Bellhousing: Mcleod 8650
Trans: 76 Firebird Super T10
Dot 3 fluid
Summit hat: P33705 ballin outta control
Razor: Schick Hydro 5
The line going from the master cylinder to the starter line with the adapter fittings is the standard 3/8 -24 inverted flair lines that Autozone, Oreillys, etc have in all different length for under $10, just gotta bend it.
The adapter fittings are what I had a hard time figuring out, but that is all you need listed above for fittings.
The TOB bled super easy and works perfectly, like a stock clutch, I was worried it would engage too low or not disengage fully, my car only has 1" of throw on it, but its perfect.
