I'm thinking about getting a beater land rover discovery or

master cylinder loosely. If you don't you will squirt brake fluid in places
you don't want and peel paint [don't ask how I know this ;)) ]
For clutch systems, I've also used for years a manual oil pump can, the old

Got my reman 1492 with aux input tonight. Five minutes later it was in the dash
and making serious noise.
Ed and his people rock! (As do their radios!)
