Remote Clutch Bleeder for TA Anyone using one? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm used to using a braided steel brake hose allowing for the convenient bleeding of the clutch hydraulics. I use it on my race car (not a Corvette or FBody) and its screwed into the slave cylinder in place of the "stick" bleeder. Do any vendors have a ready to order screw in hydraulic hose to allow for this and designed for the FBody? Using the bleeder screwed into the hydraulic throw-out bearing is a mess and inconvenient.

I think McLeod sells something similar to what you are looking for. It takes the place of the factory bleeder and is held in using a roll pin and sealed with the same style o ring, but has a braided steel line and bleeder on the end. Not sure on the web site, I'm sure it would be easy to find it though. I believe this line is what is required for the use of mcleods bellhousing, so they have to make something along those lines.
