Default opinion on Mcleod clutch

Looking for any opinions of the mcleod clutch - pp, disc, and lightweight flywheel also comes with master cylinder seen it advertised ay Tbyrne for $999. Got to fix my sticky clutch problem on my 2000. Got lt headers and vararam and exhaust and would like stock like pedal pressure without clutch chatter,shudder

I have been running McLeod clutch assemblies for years... first the single disc and now the DD. I replaced the slave and had a custom Master built (this was before mass produced masters were made available) I have NEVER HAD A CLUTCH PEDAL PROBLEM in all the years with the McLeod setups.

I believe Cost is a majoy factor here. After you buy the clutch assembly, master, slave and install you are looking at a good amount of money. People dont want to spend that kind of cash on something you cant see.
