Mcleod slave cylinders
Has anyone used the Mcleod slave cylinders in an F-body? I know they're expensive but I was wondering if there were advantages over stock? I currently have a tick master, gm slave, and textralia but I can't make more than one pass at a time at the track. After a pass my fluid gets hot and won't fully disengage the clutch. I'm looking to move to a twin disc at this point due to future plans anyway so while I'm in there I was wondering if the extra money on the mcleod slave with give me a benefit.

The benefits between the factory oem unit and the McLeod is that ours is fully rebuildable and you also have the ability to adjust the freeplay between the face of the bearing and the tips of the fingers on the pressure plate. The factory piece is what it is, if it goes bad you chuck it to the round file.

It also looks like you offer one that has the f-body quick disconnect on the master cyl. side. Is that correct?

Yes our hydraulic bearings do offer the oem factory quick dis connect fittings, and yes they do displace more fluid, but I dont think they shield heat away from the fluid any better. You may want to look at a heat shroud from design engineering to cover up in input line from the master cylinder to the bearing itself.
