Default Tick (Tilton) MC

I figured I'd ask here since I'm pretty sure Tick is going to deny my warranty claim since I don't have the original receipt.

What is the bore size and series # of the Tilton MCs that tick uses in their C5 kits?

series 76, 7/8ths?

They're all 7/8's unless specified through tick to be 3/4 and I'm pretty sure you have to call that in. 3/4 will feel like a stock pedal, 7/8 will have way more pressure, you can literally feel the difference.

75 series. 7/8" is what they use... 3/4" is stock equivalent. I ended up ditching mine and replaced it with a 75 series 3/4" tilton and that's what i've been running for years now.

Same here. With my twin RPS the pedal effort was high, and the engagement window was paper thin. Still a bit touchy, but way better to drive.

Exactly why I did it... went to LT1S twin disc and engagement window is already very small. But I ran it on stock clutch too. In my situation it was cheaper than buying a new OEM unit and i knew it would be a nice solid metal piece that will last.

Cool, thank you. It turns out Tick actually was able to find my order from 7+ years ago and are honoring the lifetime warranty. Here's one for customer service!

Good that they stand behind their product like that.

Check your email! I was in the same boat with 1 of the 3 different ones I’ve bought. Turns out I had a copy of the receipt in my email and all was good.

When asked, 05 gto, 02 camaro ss, 02 Z06 setups.



** didn’t read your last post, glad they fixed it for you!
