I had issues with the first cylinder leaking because of side loading the piston. I did some home work and found a better and stronger cylinder like the one Silver sport supplies in there kit. I also made a custom bracket to center the pushrod so it doesn't side load the piston. It's been fine since that.
I like the kit Silver Sport has because of the cylinder. It's been a great upgrade to my driving experience imo. |
Thanks for your input on that piece so that it could be made better. That's exactly what I'm looking for. In addition to the hard pedal, I've also got some clutch chatter and at times, there is a vibration in the clutch housing - mostly felt on the highway. All that to say is, I'll do this upgrade while I'm replacing the clutch.
Also correction: I purchased a C6 not a C8 as I said in my last post.
