Thanks, Bill.

That's unfortunate when new components don't hold up. I have been awaiting a replacement steering rack for 3 weeks now because I can't get through inspection w/ the new, but binding rack the car came with, and Reg had to order one from South Africa, and gosh knows how long that takes (I don't have a cross-reference for what will fit). I guess they got a rash of bad racks at one point-Reg seemed to know the problem existed.

Not BDR's fault, but frustrating never the less for folks anxious to get their cars on the road!

I like the idea of a remote reservoir clutch master, but will settle for any one that is without problems!

Before I change anything, I think I will go w/ the Wilwood 600 Plus brake fluid and see if the problems re-appear and go from there.

Do the slaves you had trouble with fail and stay failed, or exhibit intermittent symptoms like mine? No external leaks on mine, so if it was a cylinder, it was probably bypassing the master piston seal I guess, or vapor-locked if the fluid boiled in the line.

I imagine as a dealer, you've "seen it all" by now!

Just noticed that the fuel gauge also is not working after I added 5 additional gallons to the 3 I put in for the test run, and it still reads zero, so one more bug to run down.
