Yes I have one. I stuffed it on when I dropped my 454 to put in morel lifters.
Helps 100% as I had the end of the hose under the rocker panel while I was in the car pumping the clutch pedal. All the air escaped then I tucked the steel line up under the body ! Really nice as you don't have to try n get a socket on that damn bleeder @ the slave cyl......

We should have our bleeder's out this week, and YES, they make a huge difference in bleeding FBody setups.

Okay, I have a quick question about these.

I just bought one and put it on when I did my clutch swap yesterday.
Problem I'm running into is I'm not exactly sure If I'm bleeding my system right. I did the drill mod and put in a new slave, so I know that I have alot of air in the system. But I dont seem to be making any progress on it. I just spent 3 hours and 4 quarts of brake fluid today trying to bleed it with no luck.

I tried the traditional method of pushing the pedal, opening the bleeder breifly, then closing it and releasing the pedal. Then I tried putting the end of the line in some brake fluid, leaving it open, and pumping the pedal. But I still dont feel like I'm making any progress.

I've been doing both of these with the car jacked up and the line running under the car. Am I supposed to elevate it into the engine compartment? What am I doing wrong?

Do whatever you can to get your hands on a Mity-Vac. Do a quick search and you should find some threads on it. I had my system bled in 20 seconds after installing my clutch, new slave and new master.

To the OP: A remote bleeder is a no-brainer when you replace your clutch.

First, let me say, you have one VERY nice Avatar pic

2)When you explained the above, are you topping off the MC every 3-4 times of cracking it open? If you run that MC low at ANY time, you just let air back in, and back to ground zero.....So??

on the tick bleeder, crack the bleeder open about 1/4 turn and start pumping the pedal to flush out old fluid. make sure you dont run the reservoir dry. after your done doing a complete flush, close the bleeder and pump the pedal until there's no more air.

cool will be picking one up this week gen414 keep us updated on your bleeder

Monkey_fuerte

Took your advice and may I say it worked like a charm. Only took me about an hour to get all the air out after I borrowed my brother's mityvac. Got my car running finally and I'm already 50 miles into breaking in my new Monster clutch and Tick t56.

I suggest capping the end of the bleeder, like the ones on the caliper. Mine leaked a little and ate some paint.

Awesome. It's a must when bleeding our hydraulics.
