Back to clutch slave cylinders and the difficulties bleeding them...........
Not sure if you will find one to fit as I think they are more brake caliper inspired but Wemoto sell a range of Banjo bolts with Bleed nipple fitted

I'd say the thing that makes the greatest difference to bleeding the clutch is to add a bleed nipple at the master cylinder. Obviously you still need to bleed it at the nipple on the slave but getting air out of the top as well makes a real difference.

For anyone with an Evoluzione clutch slave; just had this reply from AF1; works out at just under £28.00 for a packet of three seals

"We got them here
http://www.af1racing.com/store/Scripts/ ... duct=38641

Normally $40 is our minimum for International shipping, which covers you up to 2kg. It also covers the insurance, extra paperwork, risk, tracking number, etc. We 100% guarantee it’s safe arrival. Order more items to make it closer to 2Kg. Delivery is usually within 7 days.

For very small orders like yours, we can use a $20 method, no tracking number, no insurance, but we'll still guarantee its delivery, about a 7 day delivery but can take weeks.

The $20 option is not shown online because the $40 for 2kg option really is the best, fastest, most reliable method we have ever used. We've been shipping International for 10 years. Just add a few more items to the same order to make it more cost effective.

If you would like the $20 option, order the small item online normally, and in the order comments box put "please use $20 airmail method".

We will edit the price down before billing your credit card and ship the product out."
