Wilwood
 
Anyone else having trouble keeping fluid in their Wilwood master cylinders? The fittings on mine don't appear to be leaking, but it seems to get by the gasket in the screw on top. Would double gaskets help? The fluid gets out and drips onto my headers which cause a lot of smoke when I crank it up.

I'm using Wilwood master cylinders and found one of them had developed a crack where the mounting bracket fits around it.
Your Wilwood master cylinder could have developed a crack causing it to leak.

Check the seal under the band that holds the tank on top of the metal body. Change the band if there are no cracks or metal sharp edges.
Have seen this before, only found the leak after much spray degreaser. Now we look there first.
