Clutch cylinders
Wagoner, Raybestos, and AC Delco sell a master cylinder.
Any recommendations? ...the prices are pretty close.

i just swapped the master and slave with stock. it's only been a month with no problems.
but two complaints: the position of the fittings on the slave were slightly off angle, and if it was off another degree the thing would not have fit. i was lucky.
another complaint is that my clutch fluid turned black very quickly. i do not know if this is due to moisture or from seal material.
some people have reported reliability problems with the stock slave. Rex Ruby noted that the problem ones have an orange or yellow dot.

ROCCO...find my other posts about the clutch drama I just went through. The stock one failed and I replaced it with a Delco only to replace it again two weeks ago with a Raybestos. Seemed like a good unit except I snapped TWO of the "push" rods between slave and TOB arm. Blame it on a bad TOB. I had a machine shop make me a new pin out of heat treated drill stock....seems to work good so far.
