I'm a new guy here, I've done a lot of reading but have not posted until now. I put a stick setup into my mid 10 second street strip Monte Carlo about 5 years ago and had a heck of a time doing it with the Hooker headers I had at the time. I ended up doing a master cylinder/push style slave cylinder setup. There seems to be a lot of people with questions about the G-body manual trans swap so I figured I would post what I have done and maybe help someone else out. Oddly enough I am actually in the process of changing over to a mechanical linkage setup right now since I have changed to Hedman Hustler headers that allow linkage. The car has a Dart blocked 408sbc with a Jerico 4 speed. I backhalved it years ago with a S&W Racecars ladder bar backhalf kit but I retained the factory floor and wheel tubs and run a 9x30 tire. I started the swap by buying a bellhousing kit from Forte's parts connection..here is the link- http://www.fortesparts.com/product_info.php?products_id=207
It comes with a billet fork, push style slave cylinder and a block welded to the side of the bellhousing(Lakewood 15000) to mount the slave cylinder on. I then purchased a 3/4 bore wilwood master cylinder and fabbed a mounting plate out of 1/4 aluminum to mount the master cylinder as high as I could and as close to the brake master cylinder as possible. I had to weld a couple of half washers to the pedal mount so the Wilwood cylinder had a good solid mounting surface. It should also be noted that I have a manual brake master cylinder which made everything much easier for me. A guy I knew had a clutch pedal from his Malibu and he gave it to me. I mounted the Wilwood rod as high as I could on the pedal but was limited by how high I could mount the master cylinder, I'm about an inch or so below the original hole. I could have used a little more leverage but it worked out ok. I made a pair of pedal stops to keep it were it needs to be and I found a Neutral safety switch at my local parts store that works well with the factory mount(I think the original G-body switch is not made anymore). I have the part number for it at work and I'll have to add it later. It has 2 switches in it, one for neutrel safety(cuts power with pedal up) and another that cuts power when the pedal is down(could be used with nitrous..cuts power to nitrous system during a shift). Overall it has worked well for me. I'm sure I've left a few things out feel free to ask any questions. Here is some video's and a ton of pictures.
