Thanks in advance!
1) I was one of the early V6s to have this conversion done. The alternative to trimming the rear dust shield is completely disassemble the entire rear knuckle assembly. That meas removing the half shaft nut, removing the wheel hub, and removing the parking brake assembly. Its just a very laborious and time consuming job to change out just the dust cover. The pic is from 01pewterz28, but this is what you looking at having to remove.



2) I did change the master cylinder later as well. Reason being is that the SS/ZL1 master cylinder pushes a slightly larger volume of fluid that the V6. After I change it out the pedal feel improved quite a bit.
