I have the original correct julian dated master from the 69 I am doing and as moisture has pitted the bore badly I need to find a place that can sleeve it for me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks all!

i've honed out some pretty bad ones. also i couldn't count the number of cylinders i have honed and put back together with no new parts and ran for years afterward.

www.applehydraulics.com (http://www.applehydraulics.com). I honed mine and got it smooth but it still seeped fluid. Probably because it was then not perfectly round and/or slightly larger diameter. A new sleeve and the same recently replaced seals= no leaks.

White Post Restorations in VA also rebuilds and restores master cylinders. I had the calipers for my mom's Jaguar done by them...nice work :thumbsup:
