I have a GTO T56 I'm putting in a 73 Firebird. Looking at hydraulics, do they use the same slave cylinder? If not are they interchangeable? Negatives to using an F body slave over a GTO if they are different?
Thanks!

The only difference between the slaves is the hydraulic line that it comes on it and is just held in by a tiny roll pin. The GTO's comes out and points to the rear of the car. I have bought F-body slave for a GTO and just switched lines and saved 100 bucks. No problems.

Cool thanks, there is a member selling new slaves for 120 shipped I'll go ahead and pick one up, then I was going to do the Tick MC and have the hydraulics done!
Thanks for the info!!! Love this site, glad to get back into the modding LS1's. I had a Cobra for awhile just isn't the same..

Good description but they really arent difficult to drive. Anyone that can drive a standard can drive a face platted trans. Question is how fast do you really want to shift?

The slaves are all the same between the GTO, Corvette, and F-body. The fittings & bleeder valves are the only differences. Of course this only applies to 2004 and down. GM went to the green slave in 2005.
