Default Which Master on OZ700?

What master cylinder are you OZ700 guys using? Tex says gm,installer says Ram adjustable. I bought the stock one but I don't want the disengagement issues i've heard about. Advise appreciated.

The stock unit will work fine. I had to make mine into an adjustable unit to get it to disengage properly but now it works great.

Will the stock master cause disengagement issues with this clutch or should I just buy an adjustable?

I have a 40K GM STOCK

No enagement issues, engagement higher then stock by far.

You will be fine.

Had the clutch master been old, or alot of miles, you could throw a RAM in there but its more or less stock, just an adjustible rod...

When I installed my clutch I was still running the stock master cylinder with 70k on it. I could drive around normally with no shifting issues whatsoever, but when I tried to shift at high rpm's it would not let me. I called Textralia and they recommended I follow the sticky on how to make the stock unit adjustable. I bought a new one and did the conversion and problem solved. I was informed that the stock unit normally will not cause any trouble.
