Default clutch hose needed T56 swap

Ok from what i seem to have read I really need the truck line for the length. Has anybody found an off the shelf at a parts store hose for this application. I thought I was ready for teh swap this weekend and my fbody line is too short and cant seem to purchase any hose. The shop that makes them is closed for the holiday so here I am...
Ahh

Thanks
Dave

just buy the fittings from russell and make your own -4 line the length you want. the stock lines are very restrictive.

scroll down to UNIVERSAL CLUTCH FITTING MALE SAE BRAKE ADAPTER FITTING. http://www.russellperformance.com/mc...dapt_fit.shtml

yes just knock the roll pins out and put these in. i did this to a guys silverado about 6 months ago. after he got it all blead out he likes it. he can shift faster at high rpm now where before it would grind.
