Installation Instructions
First things first:
Start by using these following instructions
as a guide. Read thoroughly before starting installation
procedure. This is only a guide, your results or procedure may
vary due to application. Autoworks International suggests
professional installation.
Using firewall reinforcement plate, draw
up a master cylinder-mounting template.
Place template over firewall were the
stock clutch rod goes through, mark the two mounting holes.
Drill the two mounting holes using a
21/64-drill bit.
Mount master cylinder to firewall, placing
the reinforcement plate on the inside of the firewall.
There is a spacer bushing provided with
the kit that should place the master cylinder rod in the correct
position. But the alignment of the master cylinder rod must be
checked to make sure it is installed at the correct angle. Not
more than 1/8 inch up or down or side to side. If this is not
installed at the correct angle, damage to the master could
result.
Make sure that the clutch rod hole in the clutch pedal is not
worn out of round; if the hole is worn it will need to be
repaired at this time.
Remove the large spring from
pedal-to-pedal support, this spring is not used with this
system.
Pull the clutch pedal back away from the
firewall, adjust master cylinder rod so there is a 1/8" of free
play. (If this is not set right you will not be able to bleed
the system.)
Mount the reservoir to the firewall above
the clutch master cylinder.
Run the hose from the reservoir to
the clutch master cylinder, do not kink the hose.
Mount master cylinder rod to clutch
pedal.
Mount the slave
cylinder bracket to the transmission using the two stock tabs on the side. Place the
bracket on the bottom of the two tabs.
Mount slave cylinder to bracket. Do
not install slave rod at this time.
Run the stainless steel braided
line from the clutch master cylinder to the clutch slave
cylinder.
Add Dot 3 fluid (with out silicone)
to clutch reservoir.
Push slave piston in as far as you can,
open bleeder screw on slave cylinder let it gravity bleed slowly

bleeder. (Do not rush this procedure.)
Push down on clutch pedal, push the slave
piston in as far as you can, crack open bleeder screw check for
