Kevin,
I just put my '74 Midget back on the road after major steel, paint, 
and engine work.  I installed a roller bearing release bearing from 
MiniMania and it works very well.  I also put in a teflon braided 
hose from Moss, and the combination feels very good.  The worst part 
is getting the hydraulics bled again, but I found a technique that 
seems to work.
Regards,
