Hey Dewey...don't answer Eddie's question until he tells the list what he meant the other day when he referred to "oddities" found while sorting out his "not starting" issues.  ;-)

Dewey,

Can you tell me how long that master cylinder is?  Length from the 
firewall out to the farthest point?  Thanks.

The 510 master is longer than the roadster master and I was unable to install that way.  I had to remove the 510 master and replace it with a roadster master.  Other than that, the 510 master worked great.  I am not aware of any other clearance issues.  Good luck, Dewey
