GM Clutch Master Cylinder Differences?
I believe the OEM (GM) clutch master cylinder is #10147953 which apparently is discontinued.
Rock Auto lists a GM #385358 clutch master cylinder;
Is this correct? Is this part junk?
Just curious at this point in time....but want to be prepared for when I do need to replace the master cylinder.
Thanks

I bought my last one from Advance Auto because of all the local ones available, it looked just like the A/C Delco one and I got a 1 year local guarantee. Since GM is no longer making the part, they "source" parts from other suppliers and slap their name and an extra 30% on it.
Rockauto is a great supplier but when you add shipping into the price, they usually are not cost effective. My Vette is also my DD so I rarely have the luxury of waiting for a part, lol. If I have time I look on eBay for parts sellers that are closing out stock. I bought a knock sensor for half price and an IAC at about half as well. Those were maintenance items so I had time.

Clutch master and slave
Just had the master and slave replaced in my 86 convertible in August. Both came from Napa (around $50 ea) and both have work flawlessly for me once all the air got bled out of the line.
