Hello all,
I am at a stage where I am about to re-assemble my TR2 clutch and 
brake master cylinder and plumb it into the car. I have a set of 
Lockheed seals for the cylinder, which would seem to be NOS. I am 
planning to use silicone brake fluid but in the back of my head I 
have a memory of some discussion regarding the effect of DOT 5 on 
early type seals because of their composition. Do I need to buy a new 
set of repro seals or are the original OK to use. Anyone care to 
comment?
