Yes, in 01 and 02 the F bods came with better hydraulics than the previous models. If your mc is still in good condition then you might be ok running it for a while. At 43-44k I replaced mine with a McLeod and love it.

I have heard mixed reviews about Spec so I would be 100% sure that is what you want.

A must with any clutch upgrade, if you have a 98-00 model,do the slave upgrade also, and while its out, make sure to do the drill mod.
