I noticed a little brake fluid dripping out of the bell housing on my '98 Ls1 after pulling into the garage Tue. I backed it out and let it set. It isn't leaking sitting idle. This is an aftermarket slave (a LUK from Autozone) that I put about 9 months ago. I noticed that the master cylinder push rod had backed out about 1/2 an inch and the clutch was engaging with the clutch pedal almost al the way out. Does anyone know FOR A FACT that over extending the slave internals can cause it to fail? I've heard opinions on this. Advice anyone????

Providing you have an LS1 style master cyl it should stroke 7/8"min to 15/16"max any more than that and you will barf out your slave.
Easy way to check is there will be a line of dirt on the master cyl rod where it stops travelling. Measure the distance from said line to the bottom of the seal and you'll know for sure. If no line just measure the distance of throw
