does anyone have a website to the steps of installing a clutch in a 94 camaro with t-56. im getting a new clutch this week and it would be nice to have a list or procedure to print out and follow to make sure everything goes smoothly and i dont forget anything. (adhd!)
thanks,
mike.

ask and you shall receive.

 

Heh, I just read over my own install guide and realized one thing could change (made that guide years ago):

Just remove the torque arm from the trans, you shouldn't have to take it out completely.

 

nice write up. you did good. when i install my clutch ill definitely be using this. and by the way number 17 might be repeated a few times while doing this install. lol. but ill let you all know how it goes as and when i do it.

thanks,
mike.

 

I've done it 3 times. (97 - SS MM6). One thing I do is...
When engagement of the main shaft to the pilot bearing, you must align three (3) pieces. (Hseing dowels/ Main shaft clutch spline/ and, main shaft pilot bearing). Since those plastic alignment tools have a wide tollerance, alignment may be difficult. I assemble the clutch fork into the throw bearing, push the clutch in slowly by hand (not full stroke). This releases the clutch pressure plate in alignment with the dowel and pilot bearing centers, and, moves the trans forward into engagement. Works every time for LT1 due to design of the clutch mechanism. It took me 2 hours to figure this out, but not found in any manuals. Hope this helps.

 

Broken link. http://www.zmydust.com/lt1clutch.html

Any chance of getting a copy of this?

I wish we could host these write ups on cz28.com...similiar to dsmtuners.com. I used this same write to do my clutch as well a few months ago.
