Default C3 T56 ???

just wondering if anyone had any tips for mounting and running the lines for the haydraulic clutch out of a 4th gen?
i also wondered about peddle mounting, will any fabrication be needed?
the car is a 75 Vette, 350/th350 if that makes any difference.

thanks

First you need to find a pedal assembly from a manual C3. Doesn't matter what year. It will pretty much bolt right in.


For the clutch master you have a few options. Some have used a master cylinder from a 85ish 1 ton Chev truck. Supposedly it will mount right to the firewall and the angle is correct. You have to shorten the shaft in order for it to mount to the pedal.

You can make an adapter bracket to mount the 4th gen master to the firewall then mount the pushrod to the pedal.

You can also use a Tilton, CNC, Willwood master (3/4") and mount to the firewall. I haven't seen this done, but it should work pretty well.
