<VV> Dual or Single Master Cylinder

Hi Bob,

When I put the red car together I used all new brake components.  All 
was well.  Then, one of the new wheel cylinders started leaking, within 
a few months of assembly.  Since you can't externally view the fluid 
level in a Corvair master cylinder, I didn't know that until the fluid 
leaked out of one reservoir of the dual MC on I-66.  I was glad I had a 
dual rather than single MC.
