Yeah, might do that. The guy who did it wasn't impressed with the previous job, he mentioned broken connectors & zip ties... It was several years ago, (haven't been driving much lately), but they had it for over a week, he did the clutch and the water pump complete with drilling out broken bolts, in 1-2 days! (11.5hrs labour charge.)

This one lasted 37,000km, was expecting significantly more out of it. (The 192,000 was total, not how far it went, sadly.)

On the plus side, the annoying rattle at idle has gone now, as well!

On the down side, I'm not sure if it is a bit of trapped air, (though it was bled after the install, the way the slave cylinder sits, it can trap air in it), but I liked the feel of the Centerforce more than the Exidy. Though that might be due to it being new, and the flywheel having been machined as well. I'll see how it feels as it wears in.
