Pushrod modification for GM master Cylinder #
LT applications- Master Assembly 12559912 LS applications- Master Assembly 12570277
The push rod on the GM master cylinder is too long and needs to be shortened. Supplied with this kit is a new sleeve with heim joint and mounting bolt.
Remove the crimped on factory rod end. We suggest using a die grinder or cut off wheel to score the rod end portion lengthwise until you are able to remove it from the push rod shaft. Be careful not to cut into the master cylinder push rod shaft.

Once the factory rod end is removed, slide the ATS supplied pushrod end onto the shaft until it bottoms out. Crimp and/or TIG weld the assembly together.
2. Unbolt and carefully move your brake master cylinder and power booster away from the firewall. Depending on the application, removing brake lines may not be necessary. However, you must keep the assembly supported and be careful not to kink or excessively bend any brake lines. Slip the Clutch Master Bracket over the original mounting studs. Bolt the clutch master cylinder to the bracket using the supplied 5/16” bolts. Now reinstall your brake booster/ master cylinder.

3. If the clutch pushrod enters the cylinder on an angle the cylinder will be damaged and leak. To prevent this you will need to modify your factory pedal to place the pivot in the right location. From the pedal pivot, measure down 2 3/8” and over 3/8” to drill a ¼” hole. Shown is a 1st gen Camaro pedal. This location may vary slightly depending on application, mock up the assembly in the car first to be sure you have the pivot in the right location before modifying the pedal.

3. We recommend an adjustable clutch pedal stop be installed on the floor of the car to stop the pedal from bottoming out the clutch master cylinder. This is necessary to avoid bending the shaft. A simple 3/8 coupling nut bolted or welded to the floor will allow you to adjust a bump stop or bolt and jam nut to achieve the proper pedal travel.
