    Mk1 master cylinder

    Can anyone recommend a dual circuit master cylinder to use with my std pedal box and no servo.

    I guess finding out the master size on an early non servo'd Escort would be about right? Are you planning a diagonal split or front / back split - the latter being more problematic!

    Yes but they’re single circuit, I’m looking for an alternative, Mk1 cylinders aren’t easy to come by

    Mk1 master cylinder

    Fitted a dual circuit mk2 escort m/s on my mk1 non servo. New seals and coat of paint....like new. Needed to shorten the pedal to m/s rod tho.

    Do you have a part number for what you fitted, mk2 servo ones didn’t have a rod I didn’t think

    Dont have a part number sos but m/s came off a non servo mk2 escort that gs escorts had on the shelf. Probably early 1.1 or 1.3 model.
