well it's pretty easy, it's easier if you had pix but here's the gist of it:

Pop the line where the clutch goes to the bellhousing. MOve it out of the way and catch all the brake fluid that drips out of it. Then get oh a small magnet or a paper clip with a hook and pull that mofo out. It's really tiny but its in the hole. You'll marvel at how much fluid they tried to squeeze at that really tiny hole! Put the line back in. Fill up the clutch reservoir and bleed it then take it for a drive and see if it shifts fine (hehe first time I bled it didn't go so well so I had to do it again) then your done. Hehe here's a hint if you plan on buying a SS clutch line buy one now it'll save you the trouble of it in the future. 20bux at RRE simple mod :)

How much difference is there with this mod and the clutch line? And how do you bleed the line? Can someone with limited knowledge of working with engines do it? TIA
