I've seen alot of fbody's with major hydraulic problem so I agree. That being said, my setup has been working flawlessly for a while now so I'm not gonna chnage it out unless it starts acting up. That's why I was asking. Top notch looking parts btw!

You'd be happy to know that the car is up in the air on jack stands, and the master cylinder is installed...only it now has to come out. I should have bench bled it before trying to install...just can't get the air bubbles out for some reason.

The seals for the firewall are still a work in progress, but should be here very soon.

Thank you for the kind words, DTB_LS1, and thank you for your order. You're gonna love the way this kit allows you to drive the car.

I could justify one of these f-body master cylinders at $200 or even $230, but not $330 - nice product tho, guys. Hard to swallow $330 expense in this recession

Just got mine installed, haven't used it yet. Running into the clutch pedal stop while trying to install the rod linkage... Anybody have pics of their under dash with the Tick? Seems like the turnbuckle is too big or something... Maybe it is just me, but I just wanted to see some pics. Thanks, looks like it is going to be an awesome product.

Got it, just took some maneuvering around. Not too bad of an install overall. Now I just have to adjust it and see what's what.....
