Namba209 - Thanks for the heads-up. I'm concerned the bolt through the banjo fitting may be deep enough to crush the pintle or nipple inside the MC outlet. Or, the pintle/nipple may not allow the bolt to seat deep enough to allow the copper crush rings to form a seal.

Do you recommend against installing an extra copper ring between the MC & banjo, or between the banjo and the bolt head? I've never doubled up on these before and have my doubts they would seal. Your opinion?

Lindsay - I'm heading down the road real fast towards installing a BMW master cylinder because I'm running out of viable solutions. My preference is to keep things fairly stock to make life easier on repair shops I might use in the future and/or the future owner of this car. I really don't want to be the dreaded evil PO.
