M6 Transmission Removal?

[MIEngineer]

I have to if I don't care about the outcome of the tool in question.

Believe it or not, I actually found a set of rhino style ramps that come apart for easy transport....made in the USA there (but not there brand).

Ive messed with a few engine/transmission events. Not many lately though, but I hate working on automatics I avoid those if possible.

Yes the stock TOB bleeder does go straight out the side, but the remote bleeders replace that part and thread directly into the bearing so you need the correct fitting there.

1) Order in a new GXP slave.
2) Measure thread and make a drawing of what's needed in total.
3) Make up a GXP specific remote bleeder kit.
4) Return the new GXP slave.
5) Produce a few GXP kits
6) Profit ???

Working on it Paul lol
I don't need to order in the slave as I had mine sitting on the desk. I already have parts on order for it.

I had planned to use a C6 slave but the pressure fitting isn't in the same spot as the GXP slave and the GXP line will not fit the bellhousing on the C6 slave. I have been trying to locate the quick connect fitting that Tick uses in their 2010 Camaro line kit but have had no luck. I dont really want to spend 99.00 for two fittings since the rest of the line really won't fit.

I was trying to get all the parts by this weekend but I don't think it is going to happen. Why didn't Holden use more standard parts from GM parts bin??? lol
The GXP slave is over 300 and the C6 slave is about $150.00. That is a huge difference.

The 04-06 GTO slaves were identical to the usual Holden slaves of that era and were an AP Racing (UK) product.
They had AP D951004 cast into them.
Check and see if there are any similar non-GM markings on the GXP slave you have there.
(92227219 is the same as normal Holden VE V8.......there's nothing Pontiac GXP specific about that part or the fittings hanging off it.)

Katech sells a kit already. Can be used on GXP but its at a funky angle when installed.

[Greg@PacePerformance]

The C6 remote bleeders will work on the GXP slave but I'm not sure how the 45* fitting will work out with our bellhousing.

Paul, the GXP and C6 slaves are almost identical. Both have GM and FTE cast into them.

It looks like this project is going to become a reality sooner rather than later. I did a few hard launches last night and the pedal didn't return very quickly afterwards. I did a fluid change today but it didn't help much.

I need to try to find a remote bleeder ASAP. Also, does anyone know where to get braided lines as well? I may as well do it right the first time if I can.

Were you on Woodward tonight.....

There was a MGM GXP with a few people in it.

Buy the 2010 Camaro remote bleeder from Tick Performance. It works perfect. They wouldn't sell the fittings I needed to install the C6 slave wo cutting the trans case but bo big deal. a little trimming of the case and it fits great.

Hey Greg - Appreciate the advice. I'll get that ordered. I haven't decided if I'm going to have the work done for me or take up MIEngineer's offer to help. It is something I'd like to accomplish myself, if possible.

MIEngineer - Wasn't me. I didn't know there was another MGM GXP in the area (darn it!). :-)
