ok i got all the lines. and i have a question im doing a auto to manual swap.But here is my question there is the hard line that runs across the fire wall and down to where the brake lines are. Now there is a thing that is scrwed to the frame and the hard line connect to. I just want to know if thats where you bleed it and if you need it. O r do you bleed where the slave cylender is at. But i doubt it......i think. So do i really need that and if i do what the Hell is the name of it. ok here i belive its supposed to be like.NO SEARCH PLEASE. DOING THAT FOR 1WEEK NOW. They dont talk about this. Just hard lines. And is this the bleeder line.Long hard line coonects to clutch cylender runs across the fire wall and down connects to that thing im talking about then the little hard line connects to the thing im talking about and the the rubber line conects to the litlle hard line and to the slave cylender if that how it goes...So do i need that peice and whats the name of it. Man ive been at this swap for a whilw now then gaain its really cold in wisconsin and its getting warmer and NEED TO FINISH. Thanks for those that help me.

it sounds like your're talking about the clutch dampner, which is just a loop that the hardlines screw into. if that's what it is, you don't need it, it'll make it so the pedal feels more firm, which I like, gives you better clutch feel. you bleed the clutch lines at the slve cylinder, all you do is unscrew the bleeder, and let some fluid out, mkae sure not to let the resevoir go empty.

Zero is correct. That's the dampner box, which should be thrown into a pit of molten lava immediately. The clutch clylinder hardline should be directly connected to the slave cylinder. A ss short hose makes the task of connecting the 2 pretty simple. SPL sells them for $25.
