Best integral Master Cylinders for hydraulic clutch conversion?
Need to order one ASAP but unsre which to go for. Apparently the Wilwood items are prone to failure, same as the unbranded eBay jobs, but the Girling ones on eBay which are more expencive, look identical to these just with different names cast into them? Anyone got any experience with any of them?

I've used a lot of pattern ones over the years, mostly from ebay, yet to have any real problem with any of them, had to reseal a few after years but with reseal kits around £3 not going to break the bank.
I always try to buy ones used on things(cars) that have been around along time as there will be good over time feedback, I use landrover series 2 and 2a master and slave cyls on the cossie for the clutch, easy to just swap the union for a bottle if that's what you want or use remote reservoir like I do.

Just spoken to a mate of mine whos a Land Rover main dealer and he says the best ones are Defender items for what I want. He rarely had to change them and are very very simple, so thats what I'll go for. Also they come with integral reserviors.
