Since the stock MC is 3/4" I suspect that the Tick MC is the same.

As has already been pointed out, they Tick MC uses a larger bore. Their design goal was to push more fluid, hence the larger diamter. It is also why many complain that their clutch pedal got stiffer after the install.

There was a very limited production run earlier this year of 13/16" versions for guys who couldn't wait for the 7/8" kit to come back into stock, but our kit has always (and will always) be built around a 7/8" bore Tilton cylinder.

Just ordered my Tick MC last night.
I'm up in the air about ordering the remote bleeder.
Anyone have any experience with this?
would it make the install better?
The hard decision has not been made yet on what clutch.
Fly wheel is the Yella Terra steel 14 pounder.
I most likely will pop for the Centerforce dual friction.
The engine will never see the top side of 450 rwhp living in CA.
The twin disk will be overkill.

The remote bleeder is never a bad idea...it makes fluid maintenance a breeze as opposed to a chore.
