What Clutch Master to use?

[JayBird]

Trying to determine best hydraulic clutch MC to use. Either Tilton or Wilwood. What are you guys using and how is the engagement, pedal feel (modern factory feel, softer, harder like mechanical)?



The MC's i'm looking at are:
Tilton 75-750 (3/4 bore w/1.1" stroke) or 76-875 (7/8 bore w/1.1" stroke)
Wilwood 260-15091 (3/4 bore w/1.25 stoke)

I know typically 3/4 bore is preferred, but if the stroke is borderline not long enough, bore size can be increased to provide more flow.

I'm running the Tilton 75-750 with a stock style slave/throwout and braided lines on a LS7 clutch setup. I love it. Engagement is smooth as can be, you can feel everything just like you would on a factory car. Pedal effort is right in line with factory.

Thanks, Do you have a part number for the throw out bearing?

I am using the McLeod kit and the clutch feel is just like stock. The only issue i encountered was engagement height, and I installed a Ram hydraulic adjuster in the MC to TO line and that fixed that issue.

I'm running a TUET-2066 T56 (pulled from 2005 Pontiac GTO). I just grabbed a stock assembly from the parts store for that car but added stainless braided lines and a remote bleeder. Highly recommended as it makes bleeding the clutch a breeze. I'm using a Motive Products power bleeder with Tilton adapter and the remove bleeder. Can stand at the driver's fender and bleed the clutch in less than 10 minutes form start to finish.

EDIT, if you're ever near Greensboro you're welcome to check it out.

Stock slave cylinder/throwout bearing GM part number is 24264182.

I’m upgrading my muncie 4 spd with the TKX mod and am trying to avoid paying the $600+ for the hydraulic clutch kits. Is the above information the way to go? I already have the stock master/ reservoir from my C5Z when I installed a Tick clutch.

The TKX is not compatible with a T56 style space cylinder. I am using a Tilton 6100 TOB with my TKX conversion (in process).
