My Lockheed cylinder was sleeved (by Whitepost before I bought my car in pieces). As part of my restoration I rebuilt the MC. All was well for a short while, but now MC is leaking (using silicone fluid). Called Whitepost and they were very helpful and willing to tackle rebuild. As soon as I mentioned silicone, there was a longish pause and the usual, we don't recommend silicone. My question is whether anyone is aware of a rebuild kit, or rebuilder, who is able to source durable seals. I am aware that silicone can swell some seals, but if I had been using dot 3 or 4 I'd be looking at an expensive repaint. Anyone with personal experience with Lockheed cylinder rebuild or rebuilder? Open to suggestions, but want to stick with silicone. Cheers, Mike
