not a bad idea to just throw a new slave cylinder on there while you have the tranny out

Default What? You didn't get the "free slave cylinder" when you buy a pair of brids deal?

Come on Jacob, that deal just started,maybe you can fudge on the effective date?

Default personally I'd just patch it and throw it back in if you're not going to get a new one.

A new one would be preferable IMO. The boot is not critical however and some large heat shrink or silicon tape would fix that.

Default Maybe he has some of the "german" ducttape, that may do the trick..

Default 2nd. The sachs slave will make your pedal nice and light :)

I wouldn't ever do a clutch on a B5 without one.
