Sorry for taking so long with the part numbers. I kept forgetting to bring my GMPP catalog to work (which is where I get all my TGO posting done).
3729000 - Stud Ball
13/16-16 X 1.48" overall length
3790556 - Stud Ball
13/16-16 X 1.78" overall length
So how bout an update? did you get the new pedal assembly in?

Your not alone
Hey buddy, I feel your frustration. I'm in the same boat. I just put a 1990 350 with a T5 tranny in my 1989 v6 5 speed Camaro. Had the V8 transmission rebuilt and a new flywheel (Hays) and a new clutch (not a fancy one like yours). Everythings working fine until the day after the tranny's in, Boom! the slave blows up leaking fluid everywhere. I tossed another slave on, and guess what? The clutch won't disengage. Well it will go into gear but not smoothly. We figure it must have something to do with the bleeding process but I dunno. If I can figure it out I'll make sure that your the first to know.

Re: Your not alone
This thread made it this far and we still don't have a solution.
Can i get 1 for sure answer, how much slave travel is required, 1/2" 9/16" or 5/8"?

Re: T5 + Centerforce = Clutch won't disengage
GM recommends .570 of fork movement, i've been having issues with my clutch not releasing, i have a centerforce dual friction with 11k mile on it, i swapped in a tremec tko and it was working fine, then it started not to fully release, my slave cylinder was leaking a little bit, so i had low fluid, i swapped in a new slave cylinder and was only getting .477 of travel and it would not release correctly, i found my problem yesterday, the clutch pedal where the master cylinder rod pops on was worn halfway through the stud causing the master not to engage as far as it should which i think would prevent it from bleeding correctly also, i have an adjustable ball stud on a lakewood scattershield, after replacing the pedal i have .607 of throw. something to check
