The easiest solution is to get a tandem master cylinder. Wilwood makes one which will fit in the standard hole. I don't recall the standard bore, but I think wilwood makes them in a couple different

Several years ago there was an exchange on the list about a dual M.C. conversion for a 100, and the recommendation was to use a Fiat X 1/9 master cylinder. Has anyone out there tried this one? (We'll
