A friend of mine is having a hell of a time with his spridget clutch
hydraulics. He has a bug-eye sprite, with the old clutch/brake master
(same as an MGA or early midget) - but he put in a 1275 engine and
trans. Everything seems to fit except the hydraulic lines. Looking
at my MGA, I think he should adopt their system - banjo and banjo bolt
at the master cyl, and a flex hose at the slave - but he seems to want
to go all flare end brake lines that should (and have not yet) seat
and seal - no flexline, but a 3 times around spiral for the rocking
motion of the car.
Can anyone relay experience that says the best way to go with this
type of conversion/set-up??

We're okay.I actually live in the tiny town of Lima on the bluffs
overlooking the flood plain. We're only a mile from the river now
since the
levee broke at the dam at Meyer instead of the normal five miles,
though. One
of my brothers lives (or lived I guess I should say) in Meyer, he
has eight
feet of muddy water in his house. It's not over, either. We got
4-6" of rain
last night that is threatening to collapse several levees that are
still
struggling to hold back the river in this area.
