JEGS 601124 Hydraulic Throwout Bearing is the perfect solution to convert a Small Block Chevy-equipped muscle car, hot rod, or race car to a hydraulic release bearing system. Making the switch will make installing the clutch and transmission easier, and it eliminates the need for factory clutch release linkages that typically bind and take up header/exhaust space. It also removes the need for adjustment, maintenance and helps improve the pedal feel.
