Looks like I may need to replace my master cylinder. Want to get one with bleeders to look original. Anyone have recommendations? What about the one Camaro Central sells?
Thanks in advance, Dale

I had mine rebuilt. That way I had my original.
Can’t remember at the moment who I had do it. I know other members here recommend them.
Someone will chime in soon I’m sure.

I almost hate to resurrect this as it has so much baggage, but has anybody found a good set of seals for the MC to work with DOT 5 silicone fluid? I had my original MC sleeved and new seals and filled and pressure bled with DOT 5 about 3 months ago and all was well until about a week ago and found a small puddle on the floor under the MC. It appears to be leaking from the rear seal. Pedal is still great. I haven't taken it apart yet, but expect the seal to be swelled up. I am still glad I used DOT 5 as no matter how careful I am, I still manage to spill a drop or two during the bleeding and that would kill the paint on the inner fenders.
I have heard good reports with Raybestos Element 3 seal kits. I think it is Raybestos kit MK692?


Can anyone confirm? Thanks.
