Gerard,
 
I replaced my original Matco brake cylinders (reservoir on top) at the brake pedals with the newer remote reservoir cylinders.  The remote reservoir I mounted on the firewall is from Van's (VA-107) as it is small and more compact (round aluminum tubing with welded bracket and fitting) than the larger square box looking (and red) reservoir supplied with the Lancair kits.  The Van's reservoir has a special breather cap.
 
 
I got tired of the difficulty in checking the fluid supply on the old style top reservoirs at the pedal.  Very inconvenient to access.

anyone have a part number for a master brake cylinder which doesn't require a remote reservoir?

Or alternatively a remote reservoir compatible with the current matco master cylinders supplied by lancair for the 320
