No idea what brand is in my Cobra, as I'm the 3rd owner of the car. I do know, that whatever is in my car, has no provision to bleed the air out.

I welded flanges to my headers and side pipes. The flange was a bit too close to the hydraulic line, going to the through out bearing, and it cooked the oil to a gas. So, I rerouted the line. No fricking way to bleed it. I had to cut and weld a special wrench to loosen the flex line fitting to bleed it.

So two thoughts for you. One, make sure it has a way to bleed air. Two, realize that if it every fails, you must pull the trany to replace it. Slave cylinder and standard bearing, with a fork, is at least accessible.
