I got a new German dual circuit master cylinder for my 67. It has the small holes, and small early style rubber plugs that the metal pipes to the res. would go in if it were a single circuit. My old MC had the bigger holes, bigger rubber plugs, because it used the little plastic pipe, that the blue hose connected to. Has anyone heard of this before? Do I need to run a metal pipe into the plugs like on single circuit MCs? TIA.

1967 only master had the small tubes. 68 went to larger nipples.

Thanks Bill, so do I need to run metal lines straight into the rubber plugs?
