1955-1957 Chevy 210/150/Bel Air/Nomad/Biscayne Hydraulic Clutch Kit for LS and LT T-56 Swaps
When fitting a T-56 transmission behind an LS or LT engine in a 1955 to 1957 Chevy 210, 150, Bel Air, Nomad or Biscayne, the hydraulic clutch kit ensures reliable pedal operation without altering the dash or firewall. This kit pairs the factory clutch pedal linkage with a low profile throw out bearing sourced from 1998 through 2002 Camaro and Firebird models. Mounting brackets bolt to original pivot points and existing firewall openings to preserve classic under dash appearance and accelerate installation. A stainless braided line routed to a remote reservoir simplifies bleeding and delivers consistent fluid flow even in confined engine bays while the self adjusting design maintains pedal travel as the clutch disc wears.
Precision Bolt In Pedal Bracket Preserves Classic Dash Integrity
By leveraging a bolt in clutch pedal bracket engineered specifically for the T56 swap, this kit eliminates the need for dash cutting or structural alterations in 1955–1957 Chevy 210, 150, Bel Air, Nomad and Biscayne models. The bracket secures directly to the factory pedal pivot and existing firewall openings, guaranteeing perfect master cylinder alignment every time. This precise fit not only maintains the original under dash aesthetics but also streamlines installation, reducing labor hours and preventing cable binding or misalignment that can cause erratic pedal feel.
Self-adjusting Throw Out Bearing from 1998 to 2002 Camaro Firebird
This hydraulic clutch kit incorporates a throw out bearing borrowed from late model Camaro and Firebird applications, delivering true self-adjusting operation that compensates for disc wear. As the clutch faces age and thickness changes over thousands of miles, the bearing automatically adjusts clearance, preserving consistent pedal travel without manual tweaks. Enthusiasts benefit from stable engagement points, unwavering bite feel and reduced maintenance intervals, allowing focus on driving rather than routine adjustments.
Stainless Steel Hose and Remote Reservoir for Simplified Bleeding
The use of a high‐quality stainless steel braided hose provides exceptional resistance to expansion under pressure, ensuring a firm, predictable pedal feel even during demanding driving conditions. Its heat tolerance shields hydraulic fluid from the extreme temperatures near headers and exhaust components, preventing fade. Paired with a remote reservoir fitted with a GM style quick disconnect, fluid changes and bleeding become straightforward tasks. Secure mounts and durable fittings keep the line neatly routed in confined engine bays for reliable long‐term operation.
Passenger Side Master Cylinder Placement for Enhanced Header Clearance
Relocating the master cylinder to the passenger side of the firewall frees critical space for primary header tubes, allowing for higher‐flow aftermarket exhaust systems without interference. This strategic positioning also refines the lever ratio, producing a firmer engagement point and shortened pedal travel for more direct driver feedback. By marrying modern hydraulic performance with the Chevy's original firewall layout, the kit harmonizes improved clutch modulation and vintage under dash appearance, delivering a balanced solution for LS and LT engine installations.
Engineered for precise fit and consistent performance with LS and LT powerplants.
