Slave Cylinder Longevity Poll
Lets take a poll here to see how fail prone the slave cylinder is in mileage. It seems from what I've read that the slave cylinders blow at about 50k miles. How many miles did, or has your slave cylinder lasted before leaking?

Now that I think about it, my clutch was always slow coming up up hard acceration. Not knowing anything about Vettes at the time I thought it was the AH or TC kicking in so I thought nothing of it (done this rom day one). Once the H/C was done it would just stick to the floor so I had a Luk stage II put in and the clyinder was replaced at that time.

This is kind of subjective. When I replaced mine @ ~75k it still worked under every day driving conditions but it had the pedal to the floor syndrome under hard acceleration (especially on the bottle).
