O.K. here we go again on a different tack of the same subject.  The master 
cylinder in my #1 Bugeye had a copper sleave installed some 15 to 20 years ago 
on the advice of my machinist  (who has since passed away). As an aside, it 
cost me $10 plus tax on the copper sleave at the time. This MC has been in the 
car since with only one parts rebuild. It still works fine but is starting to 
leak a little around the push rods.  From the mail I have received and people 
that I have spoken with, its running about 50/50 for/against success with 
resleaving.  I would like to hear from anyone that has done it and how it has 
worked out so far.  If you remember you might also add where you had it done.

If everyone is tiring of this brake talk, yell and I will shut up.
