Master cylinder question



Well the MC is in, but I haven't hooked up the switch to the pedal or
bled everything yet.  I kept the stock proportioning valve since it
still bolts on, and everything else is pretty simple.  I took lots of
pictures, so I could post a 'tech procedure' on the website.  Who's in
charge of that?
