LSX fox body questions Does anyone make a cross member for the t56/ls1 set up for these cars and how do you get the clutch hydraulics to work? I tried a search but didn't find what I was looking for.
I used a 87-88 Thunderbird turbo coupe clutch pedal assembly. They are already set up for a hyd. master cylinder, but it sticks out too far into the engine bay.(in front of exhaust port)
I used a factory 2002 camaro master cylinder. There is a extention crimped onto the actual push rod .I ground down the extention just far enough to get it off of the push rod without hurting the threads .
You will see in this pic that I then cut the female part of the ball and socket joint off of the extention and welded a threaded sleeve onto it to make it adjustable.
If you or a friend have a welder, the cross member is easy to make. Here is a pic of mine that I made. Notice the exhaust notches.

See page two...
I ordered the Wilwood master cyl. from Summint and here is the p/n along with the hose:
WIL-260-3374 (1.1 inch stroke/.75 bore)
EAR-63010128ERL (28 inches long)
you will also need this fitting to convert the slave over to -3.
RUS-640281
All of that is about $120 shipped. The master comes with all the fittings you need. I also bought a remote bleeder setup from someone on here who makes them with a self bleeder on the end. Peice of cake to bleed the system that way.
