Default Tick Install - anything else needed?

i ordered a Tick master cylinder to upgrade my 2002 SS stocker.

anything else I need to upgrade while doing this install?
Don't think my slave needs anything - just a worsening mushy pedal over the summer.

i plan to use some Wilwood brake fluid - as I already have some.

i have found the bleed procedure here that Tick has recommended and plan to follow those instructions to bleed system.

Got the Tick unit in this morning - other than struggling with how to get it into position everything went smoothly.
Patience is something that I don't always have - had to walk away from it 3 times for a couple minutes to regroup. Fourth time it slid right down where it needed to .

Bleed procedure went as expected / described in the sticky.

Boy she feels different with the short throw of the Tick unit and without the spring on the pedal.
