As the car is not close to me at the moment (its clear across town in a garage), and I am not entirely clear on what this piece is, i want to try and clarify this with ya.

I remember that from the slave cylinder, which is bolted onto the passenger side of the tranny, there is a hose that is connected to the slave, which is attached to a bracket on the chassis, and which runs to a small box that is also attached to the chassis. This "Small box" also has a bleeder on it like the slave.

I believe there are two metal lines running into this small box; one which i *assume* goes back to the master cylinder, and one that goes into the hose (not a metal pipe) which attaches to the slave cylinder.

Is this the piece I need to remove?

After I reroute all the lines and refill the resevior, do I need to bleed it again? If so, what would be the proper method now that I've bypassed the dampner?

Thanks againfor your help dude. Once I get this out of the way I can concentrate on getting the thing to crank..
