1955-1957 Chevy 210/150/Bel Air/Nomad LS and LT Hydraulic Clutch Kit TR-6060
Engine builders converting a 1955 through 1957 Chevy 150 210 Bel Air or Nomad to LS or LT power count on the 1955 through 1957 Chevy Hydraulic Clutch Kit TR-6060 to clear headers and ease pedal effort. This clutch component uses factory firewall mounts and CNC brackets so installation requires no custom cutting or drilling preserving the classic engine bay lines and ensuring exact fitment. The self adjusting mechanism maintains proper engagement as the friction disc wears while stainless braided hose and precision fittings secure reliable fluid delivery under high line pressure. Servicing is simple since the layout streamlines bleed procedures and keeps all hardware within easy reach.
Precision Bolt In Firewall Integration
The Hydraulic Clutch Kit uses factory firewall holes paired with CNC machined brackets to anchor the master cylinder securely without any cutting or drilling. Positioning the cylinder low on the firewall ensures complete clearance for large exhaust header tubes and preserves the original sheet metal contours of a 1955 to 1957 Chevy engine bay. This direct fit approach removes fabrication guesswork and delivers consistent alignment in every installation, maintaining engine bay symmetry and preserving classic lines. Installers benefit from precise factory hole patterns and bracket contours that match the chassis profile, speeding up the mounting process. By retaining stock firewall geometry, the design blends modern clutch performance with timeless Chevrolet styling.
Hydraulic Actuation Delivers Smooth Pedal Feel
Switching to a hydraulic system transforms pedal feel by reducing the force needed to disengage the clutch, producing a linear and predictable response with each press. A high volume master cylinder combined with a remote reservoir promotes stable fluid flow and consistent line pressure, even under repeated use on the street or track. Brake grade fluid travels through a stainless braided hose that resists expansion and heat soak, preventing pedal fade in demanding conditions. Precision fittings and strategically placed brackets minimize potential leak points and facilitate straightforward bleeding. The result is a uniform pedal ratio and reliable engagement that complements LS and LT engines with confidence.
Maintenance Free Self Adjusting Engagement
The internal self adjusting mechanism compensates automatically for friction disc wear, maintaining original free play tolerances over thousands of shifts. Return springs and high quality sealing rings preserve fluid volume and engagement geometry without manual intervention, eliminating routine clearance checks and adjustments. This design also keeps the clutch engagement point consistent, allowing drivers to enjoy the same shift feel from cold start through high rpm passages. A sealed chamber shields internal components from dirt and moisture intrusion, safeguarding system integrity and extending service intervals. Builders and owners value the maintenance free operation that minimizes downtime and enhances long term reliability.
Stainless Braided Hose and Reinforced Bracket Support
Every hydraulic line in the kit is crafted from stainless braided hose rated to withstand abrasion, fluid breakdown, and prolonged exposure to heat soak near exhaust components. Dedicated firewall and frame rail brackets route the hose away from moving suspension parts and header runners, reducing wear points and preventing chafe. Precision machined fittings conform to original thread standards for a leak free seal and simple assembly with no extra adapters. Bracket materials include corrosion resistant steel and anodized aluminum, offering the ideal balance of rigidity and light weight. Together these components form a cohesive system designed to endure daily driving demands and spirited outings alike.
This clutch kit ensures precise fitment and smooth pedal operation for your LS or LT conversion.
