'Over Size Repair Kits' for BE master cylinder ?

I pulled the master cylinder last night to install a rebuild kit, and found a plate on the side stating:
"Re-Machined Bore
All New Pistons
183602
Rebuild only With
Oversize Repair Kits"

AH Spares in the UK doesn't have such a kit - any suggestions as to potential sources (I'm dropping a note to Moss as the shop that did the work ten years back guessed that they were sourcing from Moss back then).

Also - in case I can't find an 'oversize repair kit' - any suggestions as to somewhere to send it for re-sleeving (and new pistons)?

Thanks,

Doug
 
Thanks!

Also, I called Apple Hydraulics in New York,

and the mechanic on the line knew exactly what I was talking about (I have the Roadstar rebuild, using Japanese pistons, that Trevor's web site discusses).

So - looks like I'll be shipping it off California and have all problems resolved.

Thanks again!

Doug
