I've looked around and all i have seen so far are the Mcleod and the RAM (junk from what i've heard) what other brands are there and which ones are the best, and what makes one better than the other?

I heard Mcleod was the best option other than making it yourself.. depends on your mechanical abilities..

the problem with a rebuilt stocker is that it's plastic, just seems to flimsy (sp?) to me. couple guys i talked to said that for any car with big power the stocker is a liability. I think i'll just go with the Mcleod adj. one.

I've heard of the Mcleod breaking a lot. They often sell it with its own rebuild kit due to the fact that it has a good chance of breaking. I've never heard of any issues with the Ram Master.

how do you mean it crapped out? what are the symptoms associated with it "crapping out", other than it just not working?

I have had my Mcleod for a couple of years now on my daily driver and I had to rebuild it twice so far. Inside the cylinder, there are 2 little holes and they have a tendency of creating scratches in the rubber seal evertime you press the pedal up or down. These scratches eventually turns into gouges and the seal start leaking. The end result is when you press the pedal down, the oil slowly leak back inside the cylinder within the uncompressed area causing the clutch to slowly engage.

A rebuilt kit helps fixing this issue but it's only temporary. The design is flawed. these holes should be cut differently so that they don't damage the rubber.

Otherwise it is a good piece.

i had one and every time i would go to take off the pedal had differnt pressure and i rebuilt it twice i went back to stock and its fine

so it sounds like the RAM is the best choice here even though its a plastic piece (which was the only complaint i heard previously)

I've had the McCloud adjustable for 30,000 miles and four years without any issues....

I've had my Mcleod master in for bout 4 years now with no issues. (knock on wood)

It is my understanding the Ram is nothing more than a modified stock piece. I personally had Allan at Futral modify a stock unit for me.

The modification you are talking about is to make it adjustable? If you go with a new/rebuilt stock one, where does the pedal normally engage? Closer to the floor, closer to the top or somewhere in the middle? The reason I ask is I want to figure out how to get he pedal to engage very high near the top for quicker shifts and with this hydraulic setup what do you have to do, use the adjustable or fab up an adjustable?
