British car shop installed 6/22/07, and made the comment that they did
not like to install parts in a white box. I was like what? The master
said Girling on it and it was from TRF so this comment confused me.
Most (if not all) new TR6 master cylinders available now are reproductions
with "Lucas" cast in the side - I got one of these a year or 2 ago and it
leaked immediately - I have since heard of MANY other identical experiences
with
these - and a couple of cases where the reservoir was cracked on the bottom,
apparently from over tightening when assembled. Consequently I will never buy
another new one - get an old one re sleeved in brass and rebuild it with new
rebuild kit.
Cheers,
