Step by step LS1 clutch replacement? Hey everyone,
I did a search of the manual transmission forum for "How to replace clutch"
and some other variations, but not finding exactly what I am looking for.
I have a 2000 Z28 completely stock. 70K miles on it and I have next to no power above 2300 or so rpm. I smell clutch whenever I get on parkways and such. I have purchased all LuK parts. Pressure plate, clutch plate, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, pilot alignment tool, flywheel, master cylinder, and slave cylinder. All GM. This is my daily driver, so you can see why I didn't upgrade at all.
I am between jobs right not (got laid-off in late November) and have a job interview lined up on Wednesday the 22nd. (Wish me luck).
Can anyone please point me to step by step (super detailed) how to instructions for replacing these items? I have to do it myself, very little money and could barely afford the parts. I have all the tools I need, and can borrow from my father in law (Lincoln Mercury A mechanic).
Thanks a million guys, I am in dire straights here.
Anthony.

Thank you very much guys. Anything else you can dig up would be greatly useful and appreciated. I wish I had more time to keep up with this stuff. Times have seriously changed since I was 19 years old and had all the time in the world to work on my own car. I knew every nut and bolt on my 1987 IROC.
One thing I would definately need is the bench bleeding/ or bleeding in general for the master and the slave. I have plenty of DOT3 brake fluid.
