Default Master cylinder cap diameter. Blleding issue

Hi guys,

could somebody tell me if I can use this system on my LT1 92?

I mean I'm not pretty sure how much is the diameter of the master cylinder cap on my car.

http://www.ebay.es/itm/Sealey-Automa...item1c1ea6ed29

The kit includes:

Adaptors:1 x 25mm Cap & Seal for Lockheed Systems, 1 x 27mm Cap & Seal for VAG, 1 x 44/45mm Cap & 2 Seals (1 x Thin for 44mm, 1 x Thick for 45mm) for Metal Girling & ATE Systems, 1 x 46mm Cap & Seal for some Girling Systems

I've read that the cap is referred to as a "3 cam twist lock" and I believe it's maybe 48mm - car is NOT close enough to measure. I believe the tool is probably intended for sales in your market for manufacturers that are "more popular"! See if they offer 3 cam twist lock for GM and Chrysler OR maybe it's an adapter of sorts!

I've just measured it and it's 45mm, the problem it's the 3 cam twist cam lock, I guess so...
