Default Mcleod RST

Im fixing to purchase an RST clutch for my vette just curious if my slave and throw out bearing will work. I have the ls6 LUK clutch kit now but its wore out plus putting in a bigger motor and its not gonna hold. Thanks for the help

FYI, I asked the ? to Billy @ McLeod, his reply:

"The RST/RXT pressure plate is designed with the factory hydraulics stroke of .440” in mind, thus requiring factory master & slave to be used for proper operation."

For Lt1 "pull" twin, yes a larger MC is needed

I just installed the RST in my 01 C5 with a LS3 stroker. It works very nice, I've had the LS7, RPS carbon street lite & the Monster C7 conversion clutches.

I'm still running it in, pedal is light, holds power easily, I'm on PS2's so no hard hook. I've done a few long hard pulls getting the tuned dialed, very good clutch.
