Clutch slave cylinder options?
 
The Girling slave cylinder on my Cobra is dripping fluid and needs a look-see.

I'm considering replacing it. It's a push type and I'm using a C8 Ford release arm and a Lakewood scattershield.

The slave mounts to a bracket on the block and uses two existing holes in the block/bellhousing.

I want to keep the slave external and don't want to change the arm if I don't have to.

Has anyone come up with a better mousetrap?

When it's all said and done, a clutch slave cylinder is about as basic as it gets. There is likely zero practical benefit from a pricey multi colored anodized pice over the $25 Napa replacement, it's a bore, piston, spring and rubber seal.
Get the Napa replacement..... about a 15-20 minute job counting readjusting the pushrod.
For 1/2 that, go with a little sandpaper in the bore and a new seal.
