Default Bad news Klaus

Chevrolet master brake cylinders are no longer available..... and unless you find a new old stock for sale by a collector or on Ebay..... you are out of luck.

The most common practice in Canada is to have them rebuilt by a professinal that does this specialized work. They will ream out the inside and install a full SS stainless steel insert and a full rebuild kit. The resulting work is usually good for life....... or at least your life...... cost is about $200 Canadian.

If I send a letter to Europe it takes about 10 days for it to get there and another 10 for the reply to get back to me. That's three weeks of waiting.
I managed to find a NOS master cylinder for my C8 on ebay with a buy it now price of $99 so I grabbed it up. The military ones are different to the civilian ones.
