I installed a complete set of his brake lines and clutch slave extension.
They fit perfectly. The Slave extension proved to be a lifesaver in bleeding
the clutch. Unfortunately, it is my understanding that after Doug passed on
to be with Donald, his heirs mistakenly junked his jigs, etc. so no more can
easily be manufactured.

Here's a shot of the business end.  Sorry, not gonna pull my transmission
cover to get the other end ;) ... it's just a fitting into the clutch slave.
This was produced by the late Doug Reid, aka 'Mr. 
Finespanner.'  I think the best part was the simple but rugged bracket that
was bolted to the bellhousing.
