Jack Merryman of Merryman Modifications sold me a rebuilt one (dual master)
last winter for $62 if my memory serves me right with no core charge. The
one I got from him was sleeved with stainless steel instead of brass since
he thinks it will wear longer. 5000 miles later and I haven't had a bit of a
problem with it.
You can reach him by phone at 717-633-6083
or snail mail
2461 Carlise Pike
Hanover PA. 17331
He has a website and email but he doesn't get back to you right away with
the email.
