Touch base with me in about a week. This is a question that needs to be asked and discussed together as a company. We will work with our our customers that have older versions but to what degree I don't know until I bring it up to the powers that be.

+1... i am brand loyal, sure. i run the McLeod street twin and also had your old master cylinder from a few years ago. Unfortunently, mine was a piece of crap from the start and was responsible for many lost races, misshifts, and grinding/failed transmissions. Even trade in plus a little cash i am willing. Looking at the old master cylinder just brings a bad taste back in my mouth

Just relized that Mcleod is a sponser too. Looks like they use a Wilwood slave where I believe Tick uses a Tilton.
Well I must have caught them when they had a bad day, actually 2 bad days in a row. Thats why I went with the Mcloed and I couldn't be happier. It works flawlessly.

Its definitely not a FUN install for F bodies... at least they have that threaded bracket so you don't have to hold individual nuts in the engine bay while someone else is on the inside of the car. Once you get them started, its easy. Surely there's a how-to somewhere. If not, you could always learn the way everybody else did before the internet

Why would anyone want a tick over mcleod? Mcleod knows three stuff.
The Tick M/C is reliable, I'm not sure about the new Mcleod, but they're old M/C still set me back 400+ and was a horrible piece. After multiple failure's, and constantly having to pump the pedal at stoplights to build pressure- I went down there and talked to some tech's in the back a couple times and they told me the machining was sub-par( a bur in the cylinder causing the seal to tear) . I think I ended up re-building the thing 3 time's ( on my dime) before I sold it, went back to stock, then to TICK. Was very, very unhappy with the product and the support. Hopefully the new one is improved.

I've got an older version of the Mcleod master cylinder as well and have never really been quite happy with it. Hopefully the 'trade in' will be worth it and like a $50 credit.
