Default 41 dual MC

Here is a corvette remote fill dual MC in my 41. Not much room for a standard dual MC.
This one could be piped on either side which is nice.

If you magnify and look at the center of the black screen you can see the dot.

Well, Chev, yes. It was very difficult to find a dual MC that would fit on the 41 and still have access to adding DOT 3.

I used a ford torino on mine with a chassis eng. adapter. it moved the access door back towards the seat but was still easy to fill the M/C.

Have you verified that this dual master cylinder will function as designed in the event of a failure (like a blown hose)? If the linkage from the pedal does not allow full design travel, you will be no better off than the original single master!
To test, crack open a bleeder screw on the front and see if the car still stops. Just push the pedal down once (like in a panic stop situation) and keep holding it down while an assistant closes the bleeder screw (this way you won't have to bleed the system). Repeat for the rear. If the car doesn't stop with two wheels, you have a problem!
