Silk,

Don't your master cylinders bolt to the pedal assembly?

Also, the rod that goes from the pedal to the MC pivots at the MC piston. Therefore, a little misalignment should not cause this problem.

It seems to me that Wilwood must have a material problem in the seals. Glycerin (the base for normal brake fluid) should not effect buna-n or viton, which are the nromal materials for brake seals.

I am going to take some Wilwood MC's apart and soak the seals in hot brake fluid (195 f) and see if there is any rapid degredation of the material.
