The clevis pin hole of my clutch master cylinder is worn past the point of being acceptable. I could, I suppose, weld it up and redrill it but thats a lot of hassle and with my welding skills could be a bit of a disaster.
From a bit of research, am I correct in thinking I could use a Triumph Spitfire master cylinder as a replacement? It has the same bore (5/8) and some motor factors seem to offer it as a diirect replacement although I can see the fluid connection is in a different place. They are also as cheap as chips :-)

Re: Clutch Mater Cylinder
From memory I think that the pushrod arm on the Spitfire clutch master is a little shorter and the interior piston has less overall travel. I have seen them used on Marinas though.
I might have a decent used Marina pushrod/clevis in my parts stash if that would help?

Thanks for the reply. Yes please to the "decent used pushrod". Much better than something that almost fits.
Cheers Robin

Re: Clutch Mater Cylinder
I have found this, both sides shown, it’s very slightly oval, I should have taken the picture from directly above the clevis hole to give a better picture. The shiny bit is where I rubbed it down.
