Are you using a 3rdgen or 4thgen pedal assembly? If your using the thirdgen pedals that me be part of the problem.

Hahah... I had a 4th gen set in my 87... Everyone told me to go with the thirdgen pedals. So I did that. I have proper geometry, and travel as my master cylinder is adjustable. So i dont think its the pedals. They're working much better than the 4th gen ones were...and they fit better.

I believe my problem lies with a leak...albeit a mystery leak that I cant seem to find. haha.

We plan to keep the price where its at for now. We may opt to have the brackets cnc'd which is one of the reasons we haven't released the f-body kits yet. I'm not sure how that may affect the pricing either, but we're working hard to get a finished product out there.

Thanks Taner.

For those who don't know, Taner has one of our f-body units on his car and will be putting it to the test this weekend. We've already got solid results with the vette system on some local cars, hopefully Taner will provide some f-body feedback soon.

I ordered a new slave cylinder, and Im pulling my trans tonight. Im going to see how things play out, but if I still have issues, Im going to be goin with one of these for sure. I dont care if I have to cut and re-weld parts of the car for it to fit... haha...

Hopefully the F-body units will be close to release by then. As much as I WANT one of these, Im hoping I dont NEED one. haha. Ide much rather buy it as an upgrade than a necessity.

I just got mine back last night. I took a nice little joy ride when I got home! The new master really made a big difference, although I didn't get to try any full on power shifts (roads were still a little damp from some rain showers). It felt alot better than the stocker or the ram I had before. As soon as I figure out my SES light (damn knock sensor codes) I'll get her out for some serious full throttle runs and post the results!
Thanks again to the guys at Tick for all the help!

We used his car to test the new cylinder on an f-body. He's been a great customer over the past year or two and since he had a know problem with a dragging clutch it was a no brainer to use his Z28 for testing. We just installed the Ram a few months ago and his car is one of the cars that inspired us to do our cylinder in the first place.

We'll be getting all our orders out ASAP, and as of right now Mesospeedy and Taner are the only two that have one.

I hope this thing is done soon, I just took the car out tonight and was locked out of gear so many times past 6k rpm that I just gave up. I've been able to powershift every performance car i've ever driven except my own

I don't know about free, but we'll probably offer a discount to anyone who purchases a tranny build. Let me know when you need one.

Our internet is back up and going folks, and we're putting the finishing touches on the production kits. We may have one or two ready to ship today, but all will be going out by our originally scheduled date of this Friday, September 19. I apologize for the typo in the original post.

You guys are gonna love these things! Thank you for all your pre-orders, of course we're shipping them on a first-placed first-shipped basis.
