Slave is push, I chased a leak for awhile on the slave cylinder plastic reservoir, thought it was the cap, lowered the level, in the end it is where you see the hose clamp. If you call wilwood they tell you to heat the upper part in the resvoir in water than quickly assemble to lower so it form to it blah blah blah, give me a break. Use the seal all and be done. Nothing can compensate for a piss poor design.

I feel your pain with dealing with issues on your own if it is new chassis. In the end you will be much happier understanding it is your fault, anything that goes wrong is your fault, you are in fact a failure and it failed as a result of your actions, LOL!!!!!


The clutch reservoir would be the manufacturer of the chassis the slave cylinder leaking is the installer of engine and trans. Unless you have a catastrophic failure then you are better off dealing with any issues yourself and so far you have some very minor issues due to poor design. Make sure you check the tightness of all your fasteners, caliper mounting bolts, half shaft bolts, drive shaft bolts, motor mount bolts. Also with that KC408 you might have enough torque to roll the engine over and have the side pipe on the passenger side touch the bottom of the opening if they used the stock marshmallow mounts, if it does switch to the mounts from oltoff. This would only happen if you are doing burnouts etc. My theory is if it is going to break you might as well have fun between problems, LOL!!!!
