I would have a slide hammer along with a pilot bearing puller handy if you are going to change the pilot bearing.

well my master never showed up so i wont be bleeding it 2day. the overall install was tuff but the only back breaker was lining up the trany when putting it back in. other than that fairly straight forward. but then again i didnt do the dreaded master yet. which sux be cause im moving in 2 days

One suggestion... tell them to never deliver the adjustable Mcleod MC and send it back. Then once you get the money, burn it. It's a lot simpler than dealing with the MC.
