[TR] TR3 Master Cylinder(s) question

[Carl TR]

I am 'routing' the pipes with soft copper with the mc's in place before I 
bend the steel.  Thanks for the suggestion - I was dead square on the bolt. 
I think I will at least remove the brake mc when doing the clutch.    I 
can't imagine how these were done in the production line.

thanks to Tom & Randall as well.
