[DeTomaso] Hydraulic Throw-out Bearing

There are versions out there in the aftermarket that don't require ANY adjustment. 

Maybe the first units were problematic but it seems that stuff like this usually gets better over time.

Does anyone know of someone that is running one?

Scott,

I seem to remember hearing a few horror stories about them, related to the way they require adjustment and longevity in the
aftermarket versions.
