I bought a NOS military master cylinder off ebay several years ago. The guy didn't know the difference between it and the civilian ones. The civvy ones have the bolts going in from the side and the CMP ones go up from the bottom.

Barry Churcher made a bracket to fit the more common master cylinder to a CMP. May be a solution for others as well.

HTH,

I had the same problem with my HUP, I did think about having the master cylinder it lined but in the end I bought a new one fro Rockauto in the US. Its slightly different in that it has two bolt holes that go through the chassis and you need to make a couple of spacers but mine already had the holes. The part number is MCA4555.
