Hey folks,
Could anyone point me in a direction to find a late (81-82) brake master cylinder? This is the one without the pressure sensors. My usual online parts shops aren't turning up anything.

One of the brake light pressure sensors is in the way of my throttle-body/intercooler plumbing...

Can you not simply remove the sensor and fill the hole with the correct size bung from a hardware/plumbing shop? Will that give you the right amount of clearance?

Why is it that the simple approaches never come to me...

Thanks!

If you remove the sensor, you'll have to figure out what to do with the warning light wiring, etc, but I guess you're already reconciled to that.
