We ordered the Wilwood MC for our T-5 project. CNC is not the end all. BUT! THis is a great thread. It will be great to put together a turn key kit with stock Ford parts.

Barnstang, I have the 3/4" version of that mc now and I'm going to end up replacing it. It has a 1.1" throw and with a 7/8" slave only give .8" of throw at the clutch fork, plus it bottoms out before it gets close to the floor. Everything I've been able to find so far says I need 1" of fork movement for proper operation. Willwood has another mc that offers 1.4" of throw, that's what I'm going to try.

i think those slave cylinders are designed to be self bleeding, just pump the pedal nutil it has a good feel. don't know that it would work the way you have your system built though
