Clutch pedal is MUCH smoother. Mine always seemed to be hard to press at the top of the throw initially, now its smooth all the way through the throw.

it hit my texas speed long-tubes. I couldn't see it from the top i had to get under the car. I just ended up getting a whole new slave with metal braided lines and a new clutch and flywheel setup because I had to drop the trans-axle.
