  1. Andrew- I have to speak up for Harv.Although I've only known him for a little over a year,I've had him at my house several times(he lives an hour away)and I've been to his home.He is one of the most genuine,helpful,and honest folks I've met in my nearly 55 years.I value his friendship highly and I'm certain that he feels terrible for offending you.

  2. It helps to have 2 people when you install the master cyl.I didn't so I glued the bolts with some RTV so I could get the nuts started on my own.Then I put a box wrench or a small vise-grips(don't remember) on the nuts in the pedal box and then snugged the bolts down.I had a heck of a time removing the slave even though the car had not been on the road since it had been replaced 20 years earlier.Neither heat nor PB Blaster worked so we(My buddy Harv and I )broke off both ends of the slave by crushing it and them making a puller out of a bolt and some sockets and flat washers.That procedure is unlikely to be necessary though.The worst part is dealing with brake fluid.UGH!Good -Luck
