Default Bleeder Screw?

I did a search on how to bleed the hydraulic clutch system. It sounds like there's a bleeder screw in the LS1 hydraulic system but I can't find one on the LT1 hydraulic clutch system.

Is there one? If so where is it? And if not, how do I bleed it?

Thanks

I dunno....Isn't the slave on the LT1s easier to access than the LS1s? If so, I'd check the slave for something that looks like a bleeder.

the "bleeder screw" on 98+ LS1s isnt actually a screw its a 12 mm bolt-like bleeder its about 4 inches above the line that goes into the slave. you need a 1/4" drive ratchet with a 12mm shallow socket. and its a tight fit but you can get in there. stupid books, they dont know what theyre talking about sometimes. im not sure what the LT1 slaves look like but LS1 slaves dont have a clutch fork, its a one piece unit. but i would say that that the bleeder screw is on the slave there somewhere, looks like a brake bleeder screw. prolly 10mm sorry i cant help u more
