This is for an LT1 I've done 3 of these and it is rather straigh forward. The only difference I can see is the slave setup the master cylinders are the same and the tranny mounts, pedals are the same.

Advice (at least on an LT1 and I'm sure its the same deal) Remove the steering column it takes 10 minutes and makes the pedal install MUCH easier. Also when doing the master cylinder use bolts and lock washers instead of the u bolt that ubolt is a PITA I've done it both ways. Also unbolt the brake booster and push it out of the way to install the MC. Hope that helps don't want to give any advice on wiring because it may be different it is easy on the LT1 though....

 

The wiring is different on the 98+ cars. I just finished this tonight. Your reverse lights and your clutch position switch will need to be wired to the wires on the neutral safety switch that is mounted on the side of the auto shifter. Its a flat 6 wire connector. you will not use the black and orange wires. the other 4 are for the reverse and clutch switch. Cant remember the colors but just hook up the auto shifter and put it in reverse and cut one of the remaining 4 wires. if the light doesnt go out. reconnect it and move to the next. after you get the reverse lights the only 2 left are for the clutch switch.

polarity does not matter. it works either way.

BTW, the TA mount is different on the 2 trannys.

if you have any questions, just give me a shout.

its really not hard at all.

 

that "how to" is the one i used. its 95% accurate. just some minor differences.
