Well my clutch pedal is sticking on high rpm shifts.. I plan on starting with the hydraulics and going from there. I have an 02 car. I was thinking about pulling the master and doing the drill mod. I was then looking at the tick master cylinder. IS the tick worth the extra coin? I Woud like to only pull the master cylinder once and do it rite. btw car is bolt ons for now. Will have cam n nitrous on before summer end.

 

worth it. Car feels like a new car with the tick master in it. And the ability to adjust the pedal is awesome.

 

I make 441rwhp N/A and 570+ N20, have the 01+ master with drill mod shifting at 6500RPM no problem. Was FREE too! Before the drill mod, had pedal probs and ALOT of clutch slipping after a shift at hight RPM, after drill mode NOT A PROBLEM. Try the drill mod first and see if you can save $350!

 

drill mod is bs....is all about a properly blead clutch....the clutch works on pressure not flow. i just ordered the tick master so well see...but i just installed the old clutch but did the adjustable stock master mod and re installed the everything CORRECTLY and i can shift allday at 7k if i wanted to??? but i have had it stick to the floor a couple of times after hot lappin it. the tick fixes the booboo for good. i drove a buddys with the tick and the car felt totally different and better.

 

not bein a dick...sorry if it seemed rude but the drill mod dont work

 

Did the drill mod on all new hydrolics and a good clutch, worked fine with 400 + hp and 6600 + rpm shifts. Put the tick in and was able to get the pedal feel I wanted and a faster harder shift out of the clutch -Knowing in full confidence that there was complete working system with each gear and each shift.

 

I appreciate the response guys..looks like ill be makin a purchase soon

 

Tick mc was one of the best things I bought for my car.......not a single shifting problem anymore

 

same i <3 my tick master

 

drill mod doesnt always work. only works for some cars.

 

Obviously, I feel that our product is lightyears better than the factory cylinder (even with the drill mod) for a myriad of reasons. Perhaps I'll put together a new thread to detail all of the differences in the very near future.

 

That would b great...Will there b any upcomming specials on these

 

Tick Master Cylinder for LS1 modification of the decade.

 

The Tick unit is a complete different unit, its a Tilton w/ a Larger bore and pushes more fluid and with the braided line they supply its does not need the drill mod. Also I have personally seen the drill mod be a hit or a miss.

 

Was gonna do the drill mod...then i read this thread. Now I'm buying a Tick Master.

 

I'm always hesitant on this one. My car is shifting alright now with the Tick unit and always had bad issues previously so I voted for it, but it wasn't a night and day difference that I noticed and it still doesn't feel 100%. It's also worth mentioning that the fastest shifting Fbody/driver I personally know has always used and currently uses an OEM master cylinder with the drill mod, and we're talking ridiculously fast powershifting at close to 7000 RPMs in a cammed LS1 on various stock and aftermarket clutches. I've come to the realization that there are probably many factors involved in each car that are unique to that car and may or may not allow that type of shifting (whether it's small tolerance differences in the transmission, part and wall clearances that are unique enough to each car to make a difference, etc - it doesn't take much when we're talking hundreths to thousanths of an inch on drivetrain-related clearances). I've driven and worked on enough of these cars on a million different clutch/hydraulic/drivetrain setups to feel confident in saying that.

 

I would absolutely say that if you enjoy working on your car, it's totally worth giving the drill mod a shot first since it's free and doesn't take that long (vs $300+ to make the purchase). Thousands of people have been driving these cars for years on stockers and drill modded OEM units just fine before the Tick came out. I'm not saying it's definitely going to work for you as each car seems to react differently, but in my opinion it's totally worth a little bit of time and no money to try first. If it doesn't, then buy the Tick unit. Just my opinion.

 

yeah my clutch is giving me some **** but I'm gonna try the drill mod first before I buy the tick master cylinder. It wouldnt hurt to try the drill mod since its free.
