    I'm confused, my brake reservoir has an outlet that goes to the clutch MC. I assume it's not actuated by the booster and is just a straight through from the reservoir to the line to share the same brake fluid. Right? So this part # above, I just run directly to the clutch input cylinder?

    Oddly enough, realoem shows such a setup for the e30, but doesn't show part numbers for the separate reservoir and bracket for the clutch fluid.
    see this link: http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?...04&hg=21&fg=10
    Yup that looks the same as the e23

      The jag pieces I mentioned before wouldn't fit properly.

      I found that the DSM fittings were the best fit for the Girling master cylinder. You'll need the grommets, the 90 degree elbows, hose and reservoir.

      For my install I wound up using the BMW 2002 remote reservoir since it makes for a cleaner install, it integrates the clutch line and you can reuse your existing brake fluid level and wiring. Crappy picture attached below.

                I used a V8 reservoir, but it only has 2 ports. I just got a T fitting and put it on one of the lines.
