Default Remote brake reservoir?

I did a search and didn't come up with anything...

I used to cook my brake fluid in my reservoir in my 65 mini with KAD 4 pots. I then changed to a remote reservoir which did two things:

1) took it away from the header eliminating a lot of the cooking...
2) increased the fluid capacity

Has anyone figured out if any of the tilton remote kits fit our master cylinders? Then it would be a matter of running a line and the reservoir someplace cooler/away from turbo.

If not, does anyone have an extra master cylinder they want to send me so I can measure it and order something from essex or pegasus etc and then post part numbers??
