False alarm not bleed all the way
Any tips
Driving it around will work the rest of the air backwards up into the reservoir. I had to start mine in gear and take off when I first installed my slave. By the time I got to the end of the road it was almost there. Around the block and it was 100%.

The only way that I've been able to get the air out of one of these is to just pump the you-know-what out of the pedal. That's why I'll either buy a pre-bled set or maybe try one of Russ's stainless lines that make bleeding easier (I have no personal experience with his line).

Alright I’ll just try pumping it a lot so far it’s helped I’ve gotten alot more movement out of the fork so far!
Also the stud that holds the clutch master rod to the pedal fell out?
Anyways I just jammed a bolt in there any ideas?

That will have to be welded back in place. If you can get the bolt to work, I would keep using that with a little lube on it.

2800 rpm at 65 mph with a 4.10 rearend ratio? Nope, I would not miss it.
I only drove 50mph when I had it. I didn't mind. I like the "feel" of the T19 over the zf5. OD is nice, but I'm really considering going back to it and putting a 3:55 in it.
I wouldn't hold these engines at 2800rpm, I'm too paranoid to do that.
