Your not leaking any fluid are you????? Where you really getting on it when it happened or did it just go out without notice?? I thought you just went through the clutch and tranny. Sorry to hear that it went out. Hopefully you can get a new one in before Bitburg!! I went with the new SPC stage III X paddle.... grabs like a MOFO!!! Also got the aluim flywheel but that won't suit the drag racing like a billet flywheel. Dam, I hope you get it back up soon!!!

don't let me hang.
I am trying to get you some saturday night racing action if it works out,
the fastest four streetregistered cars found during all day lining up for the King of the Road - at night when it is dark with the Kenworth Truck lights on and two cars headlights down the track.

Trying to get permit for the 10 minute night race - 3 races. Then we can party in the heated tent. TRYING.

Hawk, ifyou can't get it locally, try P&G Chevrolet.
http://www.partszoneonline.com. You can get the number off the site and give them a call and talk to Bill Markivich, Sr or Jr. They are great folks to deal with. They will get one quickly if they don't have it and get it right out in the mail. They got my truck parts shipped the next day.

Val, that's the same clutch I got, only I also have the SLP steel billet flywheel. You're right, it does grip like a MOFO! ;)

My "raybestos-connection" gave those to me when i bought my car ("that crappy plastic assembly will brake anyway soon, so here is a new one just in case.")
But I guess they are different? (I´m not even sure if it will fit my car. The master assembly i got also, yes, but that one..?)

Yeah, I bought the McLeod adjustable master, and didn't think I'd be needing it again.

I thought it was all one piece. No I don't have that anymore. :( Sorry!

If I did, you know you'd be getting it in the mail on Monday.

Hawk, If you will call Bill Markivich at P and G, you will have your slave cylinder within about a week if you have him send it express mail. I just checked the prices. $101.49
