Wilwood Master Cylinder Reservoir

[John J Phillips]

With the newer Wilwood Master Cylinders they have the option of a reservoir that attached directly to the top of the MC. Has anyone used this option rather than routing a remote reservoir? As a second question - does anyone have a source for the CNC double master cylinder reservoir? I have checked several outlets and they say "out of stock." Perhaps they are sitting on the ship stuck in the Suez Canal... Thanks for your thoughts.

Provided the cylinder/reservoir unit would fit under the foot box top, I don't see how you would access the reservoir to add fluid; it's super cramped in there. You *might* be able to get the top off the reservoir & snake a bit of tubing in, but how would you know when the fluid reached the level you wanted?

As for the CNC reservoirs, they're no longer in production. Scott's reservoirs (http://www.scottshotrods.com/remote-reservoirs/) and Jamar (https://www.mckenzies.com/products/jamar-remote-reservoir-kits?variant=35977046482) are just two substitutes others have used. Be sure to pay attention to reservoir capacity; some reservoirs have more than others!

The reservouse that go directly on top of the MC will not fit in the top of the footbox.
