RAM Adjustable MC or GM 01+ MC...For my A4 to M6 SWAP

I am finally gathering all the pieces for my swap. I have a GM 01+ MC and slave that came with the swap, but I feel more comfortable putting in brandnew units.
Which brings me to the question: Do I buy a Ram Adjustable Master Cylinder or go with a GM unit?
The clutch is a SPEC 3+. Has about 1K on it.
My car is stock with the exception of GMMG catback. I have owned the car for about 2 years and didn't want to MOD it, but changed my mind and will be modding it.
I did a lot of researching on A4 to M6 swaps and MC issues and so on. I have read a lot of mixed reviews about the McCloed MC, but I haven't heard too much about the RAM unit. I do understand that it is basically a stock unit that is adjustable.
Opinions please. I need to order either one by this week; last of the parts I need to get before the car undergoes surgery!
Thanks,
Jon

There is roughly a ~$50 difference between the two master cylinders. It seems to make sense to get an adjustable unit to save headache down the road.
Anyone using a RAM Adj. unit with a SPEC 3+ clutch? Any problems??

I really don't see why the RAM would hurt. It is just a stock MC with the rod modified to hold an adj rod end on the end that attaches to the pedal. I say go w/ the ram; why spend money twice?
In fact I started installing my RAM adj today. So far so good.

I haven't really read anything negative on this site regarding the RAM adjustable MC. I think I am going to go with one.
You are right, I rather not spend the money twice.

I assume you mean the width. Just want to make sure, b/c I am installing mine as we speak.
