My slave has gone out 2X in 9 years but I am still running on the original master. The slave is exposed to many more of the elements than the master which is why I think they go out so fast. Junk works it's way past the seal and caused corrosion. The slave is easy to swap out. Just remove the starter and it is right there. I use the Motive pressure bleader to blead it out which make it a 1 person job in 5 minutes.
Welcome aboard and drive the heck out of her.
BTW how does the 944 compare to your old Mustangs as far as acceleration, handeling, braking and so on?
