For a bearing? Holy ****.

 

They are actually a bearing kit. They come with their own master cycl. so you can even use it with a cable trans. Nick, it will make it hard to pull the trans in and out unless you use a quick dissconect on both the braided lines that go to and from the bearing. I think you can also shave down the case to get it in and out a lil easier.

 

does the system have to be blead? i noticed it has 2 lines. if i used the quick disconnects would i have to bleed it each time?

 

Has the one for the stock style (non-Tilton) clutch been released yet? I know it was supposed to be released in Jan

i heard they give excellent pedal feedback is this true? like you have more room to slip the clutch?

You cant just have one quick release...The bearing is like this cnc'd block. It has 2 lines that come out of it. In order to drop the trans and get it out of the way, both the in and out line would need to be on a quick release. Summit sells these fittings that are quick releases that hold the pressure when you release them...cause otherwise you would have to bleed it every time...just like brakes...ya know?

The guy from Tilton told me this bearing would work with and clutch...

 

Hey Nick, we can get them. Scott and I put one on Duc's car back during the summer and the pedal basically feels like an ACT Heavy Duty plate now (really easy to drive). Ryan, I'm working on a hydro conversion that we should put on your car too. All we have to do is mount the Tilton clutch master cylinder inside your car. (I forget, will your dash come off they way your cage is run?) I might do it on Will's Rex somewhere down the road depending on what he wants to do. David (aka Shrek) also has one on his EH but i'll be awhile as Scott and I are still waiting on the fuel system stuff before he can even start breaking in his motor.

does it leak? any problems?

 

No, we haven't had any problems with it yet. I think it would be a little more work with your car only because of how frequently you have to pull trannies. Everytime we do it on Duc's car we have to disconnect it at the master cylinder (which isn't a big deal). A quick release inline would be nice tho, then you would just have to bleed it everytime.

 

They have quick disconnects that should not require bleeding...

 

Oh damn, my bad. I didn't even catch what you were saying up above. That would be cool tho.

 

This setup works great, but if you do setup to disconnect, you only have to disconnect one. The other line is a bleed line that just comes out of the trans to a bleed screw. On kenny's car, we just cut the hole in the trans case a bit bigger so the bearing will fit through there and then left some slack in the line so you can pull the trans, sit it down on the ground, and then remove the bearing and slide it out of the hole. Much easier than bleeding it every time!!

 

does it require any adjustments?

 

I never thought about that Tony, that seems like it would be the easiest. There's not really anything to adjust with the bearing, it just kind of "clips" onto the bellhousing.

Tilton told me the thing is all self adjusting....

 

we were running it, but after a week of trying to find a leak with out success we went back to the stock setup and honestly felt NO difference in the clutch. im not sure what the benifit is supposed to be, but we didnt notice one.

 

Here is the complete kit I got for my car: I didnt do the quick disconnet fittings because they cost too damn much!! I just cut a larger hole in the window where the shift fork used to be.

You guys didn't notice any difference? It makes the world of a difference for us. About the only thing you get out of it is a cleaner looking setup with a lighter pedal but I love it.

 

how come there are so many reserviors in that pick?

 

They're interchangeable for the remote reservior but we always use the smaller one as it looks cleaner.

 

BTW, I have some pics of it on the car. I absolutly love it! online so I can post them.
