Thanks Towcat. Also, will i be able to keep using my gear vendors since it bolts up after the transfer case?

I found the zf5 is only about .5 inches longer than the C6. I was able to re-use my drive shafts. The master cylinder hunt is a great game. Like EMD Driver, all I could find was one that had offset mounting bolts. I made a pattern of the master cylinder mating surface and drew it on the firewall before drilling, that way I could clock the MC so it will be straight up and down, rather than turned 20+ degrees left.

Don't forget the pilot bearing for your flywheel. I also took the opportunity to have the machine shop flip the flywheel ring gear so I have brand new fresh teeth for my starter to engage with.
