Hi James at Kanter: thanks for the terrific rebuild of my Packard BTV. Thanks also for your generosity. I installed the BTV as I received it, without knowing that the brass fitting at the end of the master cylinder with three ports on it was backwards. I simply removed the brass fitting and turned it around and finished the installation using a pointed awl to keep the middle port in line with the brake fluid path. My pedal travel distance is more than my old BTV, and I am trying to find out if this is the new normal pedal distance feel.
