McLeod uses the Wilwood "compact" MC but make the "mounting" adapter per vehicle application and the "adjustable" rod part. It is available in stock 3/4" bore and the larger 13/16" bore MC. The larger one will push more fluid and have about a 10% higher pedel feel in terms of effort. It is required with a twin disc clutch and would also work with a single and most likely shorten the pedal travel also. It comes with new braided line and fitting to attach to the "pin" connection of a OEM slave.

Glad your twin works well with the stock MC"modified" with an adjustable rod.
My twin came with the larger MC when I bought it through JEGS about a year ago.I am not a clutch manufacturer but I defer to McLeod for theirknowledge...which is to use the larger bore 13/16"/adjustable rod MC withthe LT1 "pull" street twin. I am sure if they felt it was notnecessary they would not include it with their clutch and sell it for cheaper.
By extending a stock MC you can get the increased volume of fluid to push theslave further. A larger MC will allow for shorter travel since it moves more volumeof fluid
McLeod has made improvements for the street twin for LT1over the years. They used to provide the Tilton MC with it but that unit hadissues tearing the rubber cup in the MC
