Doug, et al

I looked into that hydraulic throw-out bearing slave replacement and have the
following observations:

1) It's damned expensive.
2) If it needs fixing, it's "take it all apart" time, and we can argue wether
it's better out the top, or out the bottom.
3) From users, they leak fluid.  That's to near the clutch facing for me.

MkII Tigers did very well with external 6 bolt brackets and the stock Girling
slave, and I believe Sunbeam Specialties has some.
