Edit: you can source the line to connect the tilton to the throwout bearing from Michelin iirc for under 50 bucks.
You are probably right but without their legwork and the idea in the first place I would have never thought of putting something like this kit together. I don't mind paying for intellectual property. Once at least. By the way I searched Michelin iirc for the line and came up with nothing. Any more info on that?

Don't forget to measure for the air gap with a feeler gauge, very crucial.
