best remote bleeder?
What is the best remote clutch bleeder? I was going to pull the exhaust and tunnel plate to bleed the system, so I figured I could probably get a remote bleeder in there while the exhaust/plate is off the car. Let me know hwich one is best and where to buy it. Thanks

I bought one from Tick Performance in NC. High quality, very nice.
Keep in mind it's a real PITA to install without pulling the drivetrain. I fabricated a special tool from a box-end wrench to tighten it up. If I were going to do it again I would use a deep socket and cut/weld up a tool. With my tool it wasn't too bad but still not easy.

I got the one from tick performance too, as it came recommended. My engine was out so i took advantage to buy as much as I could in terms of parts that are easy to install once the engine is out. Haven't actually used it yet, but seems like a nice piece.

One other thing to note, the tick performance one I got was a new improved version with this "speed bleed" feature. Not sure how it compares to others to be honest, but I know it was of course advertised to be the latest and greatest. Realistically though I don't think you can go wrong with any of them from any of the reputable vendors here.
