We use (and sell) the Tick bleeders. We've not had any problems and they make life so much better when you need to bleed your hydraulics.

The slave must be out of the car in order to properly tighten the fitting. It just isn't possible to do while the car is fully assembled.

Check out the Product Reviews on our website: http://www.tickperformance.com/tick-...to-ls1-f-body/

$49.99, in stock and ready to ship. We even offer a "Lightweight Saver" shipping method that is usually less than $7 for 3-4 business day delivery.

One of our Remote SPEEDbleeder Lines is a MUST during a clutch install!
