BTV and various conversions have been a major topic of controversy of both originality and technicals over the last 10 to 15 years.

I belive the final solution yet to come is to find a 5/8" diamter MODERN DESIGN type master cylinder to replace the BTV master cylinder while RETAINING the BTV power unit.

THis entire BTV issue is on a par with the V8 oil pump. Many things were tried with the V8 OEM oil pump that resulted in too much compromise. When the Olds pump conversion was finaly discovered it put to rest the oil pump controversy. The same history will unfold for the BTV.

But it will take the yet to be discovered master cylinder to put the BTV compromises to rest.
