Hello my friend. I have a LS3 and a tko 5 speed in my 63 vette. Im using a keisler hyd clutch set up. My clutch grabs at the very top. How does your work? Thanks for your time.

Joe, My transmission " kit " came from American Power Train, but I think all the hyd clutch system works basicly the same. My clutch works fine but I made sure I had the correct clearance on the release bearing on installation. I can adjust my pedal height some but to change the clutch clearance you have to remove the transmission and remove or add shims. Pedal at the top usally sounds like lack of clearance. If it gets too tight you will have release bearing failure. Hope this helps.

Stock frame or aftermarket?

Joe Inama

Sriii chassis. My bearing clearance is correct. My clutch pedal is at the very top at engagement with no disc slippage. . I would like engagement at about middle pedal. At a loss to accomplish my goal.

The chassis is stock and nothing on the chassis has been cut or modified. I have a lowered fiberglass spring on the rear and shortened front springs on the front. and the new power steering box.

Joe, I'm not sure how your set up looks but is there any way to move the rod up about an inch on the pedal. This will make it easier to push and give your pedal a different feel. Just a thought?
