Trularin,
I wish I had printed the old thread before the crash. What size MC were you running before? What size MC on your clutch and are you using the Wilwood slave? I have a 5/8, 7/8 and 1" now. I was hoping to button everything up and get this thing on the road but I don't want to go back through it again.

I was going to go 5/8 on the front, 7/8 on the rear and 1" on the clutch per Dennis at Lone Star. Actually he said hook them up however you want and change them if you don't like how it feels. A lot of research went into that statement it appears. I've seen a lot of different sizes on basically the same setup (Granada front, Explorer rear (Currie), and Wilwood slave). I just trying to figure out if there is any rhyme or reason here.

Now I'm thinking 5/8 front, 1" rear, and 7/8 on the Wilwood. Discovered a lot of info on the 1" causing leaks or premature failure with the MC being too big. I guess I need to buy a new 3/4 for the rear. Sure getting tired of purchasing things I already have but I guess that just part of the process.

Thanks for you input.
Mark
