Steve....
I can supply you with a rebuilt MGA master cylinder that has been bored
slightly oversize and fitted with an oversize piston and seals.
This eliminates the (admittedly slight, but I have experienced it) risk of
fluid leaking between the cylinder and sleeves of a re-sleeved unit.
The price is $165 for an MGA dual master cylinder, but receipt of a
rebuildable original in exchange is a requirement for sale.
