Follow up to clutch problem...I had to replace the rubber cup in the master cylinder. It was missing some chuncks of rubber and starting to break down from old fluid. Fluid was said to be breaking down from possibly excessive pressure and heat. The fluid was flushed and replaced, the rebuild kit was installed in the master, an insulater sleeve was installed over the hydraulic line that passes near the header. Clutch works fine now and I have a spare rebuild kit in my tool box. Fortunately the repair was made in a timely fashion and I was able to participate in the Motor 4 Toys event. Keeping my fingers crossed.
