            Made a bracket for the ap handbrake cylinder, had to check because the inlets are different to girling cylinders!

                Fully assembled pedal box have used gen girling cylinders and fitted the dash adjuster, I am using banjos for the feeds to the front and rear. The front goes to a bulkhead mounted tee piece then through the bulkhead and down the spring pan rails.

                Mounted the bottles on a alloy bracket I machined, have space for an extra cylinder if I go hydraulic clutch

                    Made a clutch cable bracket as I'm running a crossflow with an rs type alloy bellhousing. I'm using a long rs2000 clutch cable that came ready with heat shield from rally and competition equipment.

                    Tried the clutch and feels ok if a bit stiff

                        I stripped the second hand ap master cylinder I had got cheap took it into work and cleaned it in the ultrasonic bath, came up well. I then fitted the seal kit i got from tweeks for 8 quid and mounted the cylinder. Fitted it to the bracket and attached the brake pipe with new copper washers.

                          Your handbrake looks like it's plumbed in the wrong way round!.

                              Nice work mate, the mounted bottles look bang tidy. Did you make your pedal box yourself?
