The reason I mentioned this parts cross-reference topic is the
guy at British Parts had some sort of 'Lucas' catalog that he used
to confirm that the TR-7 and TR-8 clutch slave cylinders are now
the same part. From what he said as he read his way through it,
it included Jaguar, Triumph, etc. -- even Rover. I thought somebody
might actually have a copy!
