Default Do you have to run a Mcleod adj MC with Street twin?

I have the Mcleod Street twin and adjustable MC, but some how got a hole in the braided MC line. I picked up a new GM MC/slave assembly for the line but was just wondering if the Adjustable MC is needed. I liked where the pedal engaged/disangaged with the stock clutch, and want it the same. If it has to be changed someone wanna give me the run down on how to bleed LT1 T56 hydraulics?? Gonna try and tackel this afterwork today.
Thanks
Mike

I got it done. All I did was switch the line from a new GM MC/Slave assembaly to the new Mcleod adj MC and basically pump the slave rod untill it sucked in all fluid it would from the resivior and all the air bubbles stopped comming up. Then took out the excess fluid. (dont know if this will work on a LSX)
Seems good now, but I still need to drive it. Setting the adjustable master to where I like is kinda a pain in the ***, but everything seems to work just fine now. Maybe some more fine tuning after its drivin.
