I'll be making a call on my lunch. Thanks!

 

This seems promising. My Mcleod master has given me some issues and even though I don't race the car, it would be nice to know that if I wanted to shift at 6500 rpm, I could.

 

I wish I knew if it would fit on my swap car... The stock body master seems to be tighter than it is on a 4th gen... I can probably tell better once the pictures of the completed f-body kit are posted...assuming they will be.

Could we possibly get a picture of your M/C with a stock style laying next to it? Like a RAM or GM unit...?

J.

 

Its a very tight fit, even on the 4th gen. As soon as we get the adapters, I'll post up pics....the only f-body unit we have right now is bolted in a car. We've got a customers 5 speed third gen here with the engine out as well, so I will test fit one in it and let you know.

 

You have a PM' very motivated Buyer!!

 

So any final pricing for the f-body kit?? I am very interested in being on a list or buying but I would like to know how much this is gonna run!

 

Can't wait to see this...I've been using a Ram adjustable master with the internal stop cut down a little, and so far it works, but I have to use every possible inch of pedal travel to get full disengagement of my clutch right now. I'd love to get the clutch pedal back down to help out with a little quicker shifts.

Are you guys taking preorders right now?

 

That sounds possible on the clutch thing. I'm SO motivated to get this cam in my car right now, but I may just need to save up for a tex clutch. I may get my cam and just wait till this clutch goes.

Do some clutch's friction discs like to be warmed up first before they grip at best? I believe some brake pads work this way so I figured some clutches may be that way. When I had that major slip, the engine was definitely warm. But I was sitting while it warmed up so maybe the clutch didn't warm up from a little bit of driving. When I had that last slip it wasn't like I wasn't hauling *** because I definitely was, but I could feel the slip at the same time and then came the shifting issues.

Some things I will do in the future are get a remote bleeder installed at the same time as my tex clutch and as long as I keep hearing good things about your mc it will replace my mcleod one. Thanks for all the help!

 

I'm going to be needing a mc, but it's not going in a 4th gen. I'm currently working on putting a ls1 t56 into a 79 malibu. I will also need a pedal assembly. Will this mc work with like a willwood pedal or should i use a willwood mc. I'm hoping on that on the spray and a radial going mid nines, what do you recommend for clutch. Thanks

 

Our cylinder uses the same flange as the wilwood and therefore should work anywhere the wilwood will work. It has a more compact design that the wilwood units most conversion guys are using.

As for the clutch, that really depends on how much the car weighs, how much torque, and how you intend to use it. Your best bet would probably be a twin disk setup. Spec has several twin disk options or you could go with the textralia exo-skel. Depending on torque, you may get by with a spec 3+ or a tex OZ700 Z grip.

 

How about one for the GTO's? I need this BAD, Cant seem to find a clutch that will hold the power in a heavy car and still not be so low to the ground you have to use the entire clutch stroke to engage the gears while driving, or be on top and start smoking the clutch at high RPM's, or like the one now that hit's a brick wall at anything over 5000 RPM's. Being able to adjust this out would be great. So would the added pressure...

 

We plan to see what we can do with the GTO and c6 vette as soon as someone local is willing to leave their car with us for a few weeks to fab something up.

 

How far is North Carolina from Texas again? LOL
If I was close you could have mine for as long as it took. I hope this happens sooner rather than later. I need one like yesterday...

 

Thank you for the all the interest guys. Production is coming along smoothly - we'll be taking preorders soon. I will create a new thread for them.

 

Wow, I bet that guy is ecstatic

 

Thats awesome, between this and trying out the new MGW shifter for the LS1things are looking up for the T56.

 

Jon/Joey-----several people know on here I've been searching for a 10.9x slip for my 2000 FRC Corvette. I happen to have the tex 0Z700 single disc, GM updated slave and master with the drill mod paired with my MGW shifter. I sat here for 30minutes and read through this entire post even the BS part LOL. I'm looking at alot of things to push the car to that magical 10second range NA before I go bottle. I keep saying the shifting is my hold back. I'm curious of a couple things before I decide what to place my order for.

1) After drilling the fire wall on my Corvette and for any reason I want to back to stock with the master cylinder have I hindered that by the drilling? Is it permanent after that? Or will a stock master go right back in no problem? I know that was a couple questions in one sorry about that.

2)Bleeding this system. I LITERALLY HATE DOING THAT WITH MY car LOL! I dont have the remote bleeder system. However I'm a packrat and have hte stock Slave sitting there. Could this be a potential easier way out to do the following. Install everything in the car minus connecting to the slave. Fill the system as described and gravity bleed. Then hook up my spare slave and bleed through there. Disconnect and connect to the slave in my car with no further bleeding or issues? I know this is a long shot but thought i'd throw the idea out there.

3)Price---PM me

I like what you are doing and I really hope this becomes a great product. I've never had a clutch last/grab/shift as good as my textralia does. I have 80 track passes on the car and about 25-30 of those passes are 1.5x 60fts down to several 1.50's.

Thank you Blu for sending me the link on corvetteforum to this. I"m really on the ropes to spend the money on this product. But i'm down to thinking electric waterpump and removing the passenger seat and retune for the 10's. I hoestly feel theres a 10.8x at 127mph if I can shift the car the way I used to shift my Fbody down the track. FLOOR AND SHIFT!!!!!!!!

 

thats what I do now after this mod

Good luck on your quest to the 10's!

 

Joey,

My clutch stuck to my floor a few days ago when I came out in the morning to crank it.... so it looks like I'll be needing one of these....

If you need a F-body as a ginny pig just let me know man....

I'll call you tomorrow to chat.

Thanks man
