Dave Bean has the genuine Girling slaves. They list them as a Sunbeam Tiger part, and they seem to be a bit better than the Shelby part. The only one I've ever seen fail had the rubber on the piston hardened. I had a spare piston, put it in and all is well. Maybe you can get a new piston or rubber seal?

BTW, we should probably start a new thread on this.

I find myself in the same boat with a leaking slave. Current is a Girling 7/8", which came with the Shelby. Been fighting it on travel, but can't be sure if that's just air in the lines or what. I pressure bled the system, and promptly got a leak in the slave.
Part ##'s and source for a replacement for this 7/8" Girling? Are rebuild kits reliable?? Or, a bolt-on replacement and source?
Sorry, I know it's somewhere in the threads....
