I think your answer is in your own question, if its leaking, fix it. I didnt and now I can't use the car at all,I need to rebuild mine as well.
Search for the post on the wilwood re-build kit.

I've had really good luck with GM brake fluid, and was told the same thing from Shane at Thunder Racing.

What's this about the valvoline brake fluid?? I'll do a search, but I thought it was a better choice than the factory fluid.

As for the Mcleod rebuild kit, supposedly it's more expensive and doesn't address the issue of the plunger sealing. I ordered the Wilwood kit from Jegs and it should be here today or tomorrow.
