advantages of having a McLeod Adjustable Master Cylinder over a GM 2001 Master NT. other then the fact that the mcloed is adjustable, is there any other advantage of putting in a mcloed master over putting in a GM 2001 master?

For the McLeod to move more fluid, it would need to have a larger bore than an 01-02 production master. IIRC, the 01-02 master has the same 13/16 bore as the McLeod piece.
Also, you have to get one that's not defective.
Plastic? Lined with metal though.

If you get every last air pocket out of the Mcleod it will work perfect and never change engagement points.I've fought the engagement problems before and then powerbleed the system and never had a problem after.
The Mcleod has a longer piston travel if needed which works great with aftermarket clutches.

The only way you're gonna get longer piston travel is by modifying the pedal. The stock one has room such that if converted to adjustable, it'll be just fine.
