Default Question about upgrading to McLeod RST Twin

Bought the RST clutch and lightweight aluminum flywheel (street car, spend some time road racing and a little time at the drag strip). Currently running a stock master (with drill mod) and a stock slave. Is there any need to upgrade to a Tick MC and slave at this point or will the stock parts work well with the McLeod clutch?

Specifically, I noticed the Monster's twin disks do NOT recommend a larger diameter master cylinder and wanted to see if that was the case with the McLeods as well.

Sooner or later you will have an issue with your stock master IMO. Better to upgrade now and get it out of the way. GM slave will be fine. Try to get the Tick Speedbleeder too as well so you only have to drop the tranny once.

My stock master was good til about 33k miles. I was headers only at the time. I added an under drive pulley and all hell broke loose. Tick master solved everything.
