Read the description if you don't want to watch the video. The moral is the same.
-I'm making a custom dash for my truck so there's more room and everything is easier to work on. It's a pain in the nuts.
-If you bolt a clutch pedal to your firewall, use a backing plate on both sides of the firewall, or else the firewall will tear right around the bolt holes for the clutch master.
- Rear disc brakes. If you LS swap a 90's GM truck, consider removing the ABS, especially if you use a rear-disc brake conversion. I used the Little-shop MFG kit, with Wilwood D154R calipers. The standard LSMFG calipers are mirror images of each other, so if you have a problem at a later time, it's possible to get the wrong replacement parts. The D154R calipers are symmetric, which means you'll never get the wrong part. They have two bleeder valves, which makes it possible to use them on both the left and right sides.
-Better brake performance: 90's GM trucks have rear drums from the factory, and dual-bore master cylinders. The larger bore is the one that governs pressure in the system. The bigger the bore, the lower the pressure, the harder the pedal is to push. To make life worse, the drum brakes have heavy return springs, small pistons, and really long fluid paths for the ABS. Once you remove that, the system is much faster! The drums themselves are okay, but the system is so complicated, rear discs are just part of a great setup. Installing a Wilwood master cylinder lets you get a smaller piston for more pressure on both circuits, and a lighter pedal feel.
-Wilwood bias valve. Brake bias valves don't divide pressure between the font and rear brakes. They delay the pressure. If you have brakes naturally designed to work in a straight line, they can often naturally cause the vehicle to e-brake on its own. A bias valve is really only meant to force the front brakes to work for light use of the pedal, while heavy pedal use in a straight line will give you full power. A good bias valve is a transparent, intuitive part of your braking system.
