Default Is it true GM clutch slaves come pre-bled?

Installing a Z06 clutch next week and will most likely bleed the slave anyway but I just read that GM slaves come pre-bled. True or false?

I always heard this but I always bled the clutch everytime I removed the slave anyways. On my last slave change ( #5 ), I just pluged it in and did not bleed it and it works fine.

Too many slaves installs to count and not one of them was ever bled after installing. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

True, it comes prebled. As long as you don't open the bleeder or mess with the master you can just plug it in and go. I usually pump the clutch pedal 30 times after replacing them.

the last o2 slave i got came with no fluid inside.
but they dont hold much, 2 pedal pumps worth of fluid is enough
