My slave (Wilwood) is also leaking. This car is less than a year old, has not seen any track time, has the heat sheilds installed and the setup is the modified Vintage Motors design.

It sounds like this is a fairly common problem. Is it mainly limited to the Wilwood units, or do other brands fail just as often? Has anyone rebuilt their cylinders and if so, how did they hold up?

I remember as a kid I had an old '62 Chevy PU with a hydraulic clutch (first with a 235-6cyl then a 327) and never had any trouble with it. I am not sure of the brand, but it was probably a Bendix??
