Slave cylinder let go

Well after about 10 runs today it looks like the slave cyl let go. Clutch to the floor and fluid running onto hot header from back of motor. Maybe blown line but probably not. O well seems like I found my week link. Was pounding the car hard repeatedly so shit happens

Ram makes an aftermarket slave cylinder.

If you are referring to the master cylinder, the link in the post above this one is about it.
