Reply to "Clutch Slave Cylinder - Leaking Again"

Hi all. I measured the throw of the Alfa cylinder with the piston installed and it's 1.287 inches (32.69mm) while the Pantera cylinder is about 1.625 inches (41.27) as @panterapatt mentions.  Both the Alfa and Pantera pistons are the same length. (pics below). So, the Alfa version will definitely have less stroke available than the Pantera version.  But, as @Rob Fridenberg mentioned, it still seemed to move the clutch the same amount.  Rob, let us know once you get the hard pedal and then how it works.

Seems to me if this was as simple as just using the shorter Alfa Romeo slave cylinder then the Pantera vendors would not have invested in the longer Pantera aftermarket versions to sell.  They could simply buy/repackage Italian made versions already being produced for Alfas.   

Thanks for this discussion as I'm looking for slave cylinder options going forward since CNC and stainless version seem no longer available.  I do appreciate and like supporting our vendors but sometimes I've found other options when the after-market parts aren't panning out.  Thanks, MikePXL_20231122_190453776PXL_20231122_190401882
