Sounds like someone transplanted a Turbo 6.5 and NV4500 trans out of a 97 into a square.

hydraulic clutch. but there is two slaves in ther because one wouldnt work . it runs good but its all hacked up. On the turbo wastgate there is a spring with a nut . I thought there was some psi adjustment with a little hose not just a rod with a spring and nut to adjust. he likes it but lets see when it leaves him .
