Default MCleod Master Drill Mod

Should this be done or not? Or will doing so affect it in anyway? I'm putting in the Mcloead adj master spec 3 and steel flywheel and an 02 slave cyl. Thanks

Does the McLeod come with their own stainless line attached? If it does, it should already have no restrictions in the line...

No it doesn't come with it's own line. he was thinking the drill mod was to the master not the line. Good thing he has people like me doing the bulk of the install.

Don't drill the actual master cylinder. That orifice is plenty big. Only drill the stainless hose that you remove from the stock master. Drill out the hole that goes into the master cylinder. There are plenty of write ups out there. And the McLeod master cylinder should come with instructions that explain the "drill mod" also.

need to do the drill mod if your producing 400 rwhp, because pressure release will get restricted and u will burn up the clutch (especially the spec). happened to me 2 times before i fiqured it out thanks to eastside....

The clutch install and the adjustable master were done along with the drill mod. I did everything most of the install for him. He got his master from F-body central in MD not sure where else you can get them. I still have the stock master in mine.
