That's a nice price Chev. With all that gear and work.... I love the bleeder mod too! That's a job on it's own!

Could someone please explain the bleeder mod Plan B refers to and does the mod include removing the restrictor in the stock clutch line.
Does removing the restrictor affect the operation of a standard clutch. ??

THANKS

Goodaye vyssbeast. We have come across this question before with another forum member. My previous mechanic did this swap to his clubby. He said that he would not do this swap again due to the hours spent. Best bet is to buy a manual vehicle.

Black1. I didn't realise that the clutch line had a restictor in it?????. The bleeder mod that I referred to, is we extend the bleeder so when the hydraulic system is bled, the fluid doesn't flow back into the bell housing and is very easy to get to

GMMotorsport sells a braided clutch line and the info on their site talks about the new line not having the restrictor that is on the standard line..

Would installing the braided line with a standard clutch affect the clutch operation ???

Goodaye BLACK1. By installing the braided line will not affect the clutch operation. A bloody good hydraulic flush will some nice dot4 fluid will do the trick as well.
