Where to buy clutch slave and clutch master cylinder? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I believe my slave cylinder has gave up the ghost. I'm going to replace both the slave and clutch master cylinder. There are some postings about seals in the wrong way. Where can I get the best deal on one that works, I need to get my ZR1 out of the garage!!

The master clutch cylinder always gets me everytime. Seems to be many different part numbers for 90/91+ and they are slightly different with the bleeder. Also the construction is different.

I finally got a GM Master last month. It's AC DELCO and NOS not sure its exactly perfect for MY 90. The bleeder is at the bottom.

You might want to contact Bill B. at ZFDOC.
Send email to billb@zfdoc.com or call Bill Boudreau at (602) 319-6575.

Otherwise you can do a Google Search.

I've seen some some great deals on those parts on auction of late, the original slave on a 1990 is on top, and many of the original had the end knocked off for enough clearance to install to clear exhaust.

I took mine off installed it, then put the bleeder back in, when installing Master and slave disconnect hydraulic tubing so you are not fighting it the whole time, its worth the extra time and only a couple of clips.=D>

I replaced my master cylinder a couple of weeks ago (I know...I should have done the slave too; but I'm planning headers in the near future and thought I'd just have it done...but I digress). I got my master cylinder at O'reilly's. The only issue was that the base was not as thick as the original unit and I had to use spacers between it and the firewall for it to fit right.
