The BD Brazilian cylinders are about $37.00.
My main concern is not the quality vs price so much as when will I have
to do this job again.
My current OEM master cylinder has lasted 8 years and I've had it off to
check for oil in the vacuum booster .........no brake fluid in there so I
put the BD spare on my shelf ........ that would be my worry, leaking to
the booster at $275.00 each and removing the dash.
If your MC hasn't failed yet, try flushing the system and using DOT4
brake fluid as preventive maintenance.
If it has failed, clean your booster vacuum side of fluid, I use old T
shirts stuffed down there to collect the fluid.
