The last one I bought came from O'Reilly Auto Parts, a regional company
based
in Springfield, MO.  As I recall it was about $55 and came w/ a lifetime
warranty, whatever that might be.

I've never tried "unpitting" a master cyliner.  In my opinion (and it is
worth
exactly what you are paying for it!) I wouldn't fool with trying that sort
of
rebuild.  M?C's for MGB's have always been so cheap that I wouldn't risk
life
and car to save that few bucks.   Remember, that is my opinion.
