I need help, i am trying to convert my 465 tranny from a non-hydro lever action frame mounted clutch to a tranny mounted hydraulic clutch. I need to find out what is the longest stroke slave cylinder that i could use. Does anyone have an idea of where I could find this info or know of a long stroke clutch slave cylinder that would work?

Why not buy a factory replacement? They're like $40 from the parts house...

In order to use a GM slave you need the GM bell w/ the mount.

I used an 80 Toyota LandCruzer slave on my factoy cast bell (72) w/ a slave bracket made by Advance Adapter, works great!

As you can see the bracket simply bolts on using the bell bolts.
Bleeding the system was harder than seting up the hardware!
