1985 clutch master cylinder - Stroke lenght?
« on: December 09, 2012, 12:23:32 PM »
Hi.
New to the forum with a question.
I am using a clutch master cylinder from a '85 1 ton chevy truck in my '69 Corvette. I did this in order to install a Ford World Class T- 5 5 speed transmission in back of my 350 cid engine.
In order for this to work I had to fabricate a adjustable rod from the clutch pedal to the master cylinder.
What I need to know is how much piston travel is designed into the master cylinder. I'm thinking it is 1.5" but I am not sure.
Any help given is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Mark

Yes...I need to know the amount of travel of the piston in the bore of the master cylinder that is used on a 1985 1 ton Chevy pick-up truck.
I've been looking all over the 'net for the specs on the master cylinder I'm referring to but can't find the info. I need anywhere.
Thanks.
Mark
