Oh, my god,

I think I triggered a discussion, that I thought was long ended.

I have replaced ALL parts of the 100's braking system with brandnew
stuff. I am using silicone b.-fluid since 15 years on all my cars.
Fantastic stuff..

BUT:
My question is which precise modifications are advisable to the interior
parts of the 100's mastercylinder. Please check this article from the
archives...:

When converting a car to silicone brake fluid, know that the 6 cylinder
and
4 cylinder models are different due to the master cylinders being
different.
On this subject, Roger Moment wrote the defining article in the Austin
Healey Magazine, 12/03.
The 100-4 master cylinder needs a minor modification as documented in
that
article. Also White Post knows how to make this modification, well worth
the
dollars to send to them for a rebuild.

Any one has more details to this? Jim Leblanc seems not to be on the
list anymore, my e-mails to him return undeliverd.


Regards



Thomas
