Stock conversion & the ram are the same thing.
The best IMO is the stocker converted yourself. Why? Because it is the most cost effective & gets the job done.
I run a Mcleod & it is high maitence. But that's fine for me, I dont drive the car much.

Mod'd adjustable stockers are usually fine in most cases anyway.
Thats the only 2 choices out there right now BTW, mcleod or the stocker made adjustable be it ram or whatever.

Technically the stock unit is not a true adjustable master. The Mcleod unit pushes more fluid along with having an adjustable rod. The rod only does a little as far as fixing it but a True Adjustable Master should always have a larger bore inside the master to push more fluid. The Mcleod is by far the best since all stock units push the stock amount of fluid. There is no way to change that unfortunantly but the Mcleod pushes almost double the amount of fluid the stock unit does. It also has alot more adjustability on the rod than converting a stock one does.
