This one was listed here back in May and doesn’t look to be sold - probably what you’re looking for with a low-mile take out.

They must be a dime a dozen!!

I bought the one linked- thanks! he was 10 miles from my house.
anyway- Blacksheep---- what clutch fluid do you recommend? I saw you said SRF was no good- ate seals etc.
I have been using it no probs for a few years. anyway - open for suggestions. Appreciate any help!

 

[Mad Hatter]

What!! SRF no good?? I have been using it for years now!!

Do you have the clutch circuit apart from the brakes?

 

[Drlee50]

yes i have them seperate. he said in a previous post the srf damaged seals and maybe was the cause of some slave cyl failure.
I have had no problems with it for brake fluid.

Sorry, I just got back from the IMSA race in Sebring (the car finished 2nd BTW) I don't recall saying any particular brand of fluid ate seals or anything else, maybe I did, I'm getting old, but that's not my norm.
Here.. I put this %$# on everything.

I had multiple slaves fail on both my Boss and GT350R running SRF. Also had a Brake master cylinder fail on the Boss and did a preventative change on the 350R after seeing evidence of rubber particles in the reservoir. May be a coincidence, but no repeat using either Motorcraft DOT4 or 5.1 LV.

That was Black Boss- sorry! My bad- I respect the both of your opinions and put stock into that info.
I am about to replace the slave and dont want to risk premature failure.

Black boss.Black sheep...220..221 whatever it takes. lol
I wonder how many are old enough to get that movie reference?

 

[JDee]

The Pappy Boyington reference? I took the Black Sheep handle as being inspired from that?

 

[TMSBOSS]

The Pappy Boyington reference? Nope. My guess is Mister Mom.

 

[Drlee50]

how about a trim on that mustache RON!?!!

the Blacksheep reference is sorta from Boyington, but it actually came from my Fire Dept days... and for the same reason, my house was full of outlaws and I was the officer.
