You can piece that together pretty easily. Try a Wilwood master cylinder and clutch slave cylinder (Summit). You just need to determine whether you want a push or pull slave cylinder.

Be aware that Wilwood has had a few problems recently with their slave cylinders. The rod had been coming unscrewed from the piston on the slave cylinder.
I am aware of five or six Lone Star owners that have experienced the issue in the past few months. Wilwood is aware of the problem and told me they were looking into it about a month ago. We sent them pictures of our installations and they told us they appeared to be installed correctly.
I have a Wilwood slave cylinder and have replaced one (under warranty) and repaired one myself in less than 2,000 miles.

What size Master and slave should i get. I have a G-force T-5 with a Centerforce DFX clutch and Aluminum flywheel and lakewood bell. This a 94-95 bellhousing, they are a tad deeper than the 86-93 bells.

The Wilwood reverse pull slave is, I think .78 dia. I use a Wilwood 1" master cylinder, clutch is a Centerforce dual friction. The clutch is easy to depress, and I've had no problems in the three years I've had it. Wilwood recommended a
.75 master, but that was way to easy, giving very little resistance and little feel in the pedal. The 1" master works much better. The Slave connects to a OEM clutch arm, and uses a Centerforce stock replacement throwout bearing.

Some external slave cylinders fail because of the mount. If they are solidly mounted, the piston rod can be side loaded in operation and wear the seals, causing leakage.

I've used both McLeod and Ram,I like the Ram set-up,it has a better feel and it takes less movement and pressure,I used a 1" wildwood master with the Ram,and a 3/4"with the McLeod.

I've used both McLeod and Ram slaves,both internal,1"with the Ram and 3/4 with the Mcleod,the ram gave a better feel,and was easier to use.
