1986 Elcamino -T56 Magnum 6 speed- time to order parts

1. I have my LS3 480/hp crate engine, now I need to order my 6 speed. I have been looking at a few companies, Pace & D&D. I plan to order the Magnum 6 speed, with a RAM 12" Power Grip Clutch-with the stock bell housing. I might also order the Master Cly. kit(works with G body). What do you guys think any other parts or kit I need to look at??

Thanks RW

I suggest this, http://www.sickspeedmonte.com/Clutch.html . I've used this on the Monte and El Camino with a Tick master for an F body.

ok, Thanks, I have a factory G body set up already

The bracket will produce the proper geometry for the Master cylinder. Silky smooth with zero binding.

What is the difference if I would use the F body pedals??

What is the difference if I would use the F body pedals??

One is bolt in and proven to work, the other has to be cobbled together...

This piece bolts the master in the same place as on a F body without modifing the firewall to get the same pedal mounting location, geometry, and feel. You have f body pedals that will need to be mocked and redesigned to fit a g body. The included clutch pedal is a simple install onto the existing G body piece. Trust me, this piece will save you a bunch of headaches. It is proven to work.

Ok, with that being said. What are the issues using a factory G body pedals from a manual car??

[howehot]

Same pedal setup with the included pedal in the kit, but the included pedal is designed for a hydrolic master, not a mechanical linkage. Question is, how are you mounting your clutch master cylinder? I have zero skin in this but you ask for some parts that work. This works.

Thanks for the info!! Pace Performance sells a Kit that works on the G body, Just asking what parts that work!! I can always buy the pedal set up!!!

Here is the setup on my El Camino with a Tick master

nice set up. I like your power seats to!!

Ok Guys What do you think about Clutch Size 12 inch Power Grip HD or the 11 inch Power Grip HD??

No need for a 12" clutch, 11" will be just fine. Better yet, look at the DYAD double disk clutch. Keep in mind that the larger the diameter the more inertia you have to deal with.

[Rwolf15241]

no dyad for me
