I just had the master cylinder replaced on my 91 Civic (a/t) .. Cost me $79
for the part (from Honda.. charged me his price since i got $1200 worth of
stuff done) and $111 for the labor. Included the fluid flush and new fluid.

hope that helps in some small way...

That's about what I paid for my 1994 *CLUTCH* master cylinder. Still
on my original BRAKE master cylinder at 154,000 miles. It was $175 for
part and labor together. A little high, but not really excessive.
