Default Adj Master Cyl benefits?

What's the point of going w/ an adjustable master cylinder. What benefit does it provide on a stock clutch or say a spec 3?

allows for change of clutch engagement or in certain cituations where you have installed an aftermarket clutch and the clutch doesnt fully disengage an adjustable master cylinder would allow more or less pedal to compensate for the new clutch.

basically its a rod built just like adj suspension parts where you can lengthen or shorten it depending on application

THanks. Is a stock master cyl that has been converted to adjustable just as good as an aftermarket adj master when used on aftermarket street/strip clutch?

Yes and no. I went to a Ram Adjustable and it wasn't allowing my transmission to fully disengage so I went the Mcleod unit which is a race unit and it fixed that problem.
