Question McLeod or original GM Master Cylinder replacement?

Hey guys.

I have a rebuilt t-56, new GM +01 slave and a new textralia clutch. I am having high and some low rpm shifting problems. I know its my master and I wanted some advice, should I get an OEM GM parts master cylinder replacement or should i get the McLeod Adjustable?

Pay alot now and know it will work or save 50% and get a reliable GM part?

what should I do?

thanks in advanced

Jerry

always opt for an adjustable. Ram sells them too, probably cheaper than McLeod.

Like I said I don't think my friend McLeod master is doing any good. I guess you can just have it. I know McLeod has a rebuild kit.

I've ran quite a few RAM masters. They are just modified factory masters, so they work just like stock but are adjustable.
