Just picked up a 1980 wilmac trike project. Does anyone know of a replacement master cylinder for it?. I know that it is a 5/8 bore but that's it. Thanks vic

sorry no help but welcome aboard
Welcome to the Gang. Again no help but the VW guys here are great and I'm sure they will chime in soon.
Don't know. Never have had a bought trike.
Most likely it is a std dune buggy unit. 5/8 is unusual small bore but is viable with correct associated parts.
Pictures may help.
The WilMac kits used a standard round type master cylinder made for dune buggies. Below is an image straight from the WilMac Assembly Manual showing the mc on the frame. As shown in the link at the bottom of this message replacement master cylinders of this type are readily available online. Hope this helps.

Here's one example of the master cylinder types available from most any online VW Dune Buggy supply house:
