I replaced the CMC and it has been perfect. The pedal is more firm than original, and the firm feel starts within .5"-1" of taking up the slack.
I just finished bleeding it - it seems to have worked, haha. If anyone reads this thread, the Motive Power Bleeder with the ford head also fits the clutch reservoir. I found that out randomly!

The pedal pressure seems to be like how it was before I bled it again, but this time, the pedal drop is the original .5-1 inches. Lets hope it stays this way.

I know Joe is working on a HD CMC, so hopefully that will be an option soon.
