I am running a stock brake system. The master cylinder is shot. I was originally going to rebuild it, but considering the prices of some aftermarket ones, I am not so sure.
Is there any downside to upgrading to the 19MM model? Has anybody bought one of these? http://www.paragon-products.com/product_p/...5.012.02apa.htm Thanks. |

Bummer. Which would be a better option, an aftermarket/repro rebuild kit or an aftermarket/repro master cylinder? I don't see any rebuild options for master cylinders on Eric Shea's site either.
If truly nothing is available, maybe a vintage restoration service would work. I know a lot of people in the Brit car world use White Post Restorations. Not cheap, but brakes are probably something you should really have 100% confidence in. Scotty b, White Post is sort of in your neck of the woods. Do you have any experience with them in the Porsche world? Skip |
