mk2xflow Posted June 1, 2014 Report Posted June 1, 2014 im debating which master cylinder to use on my mk2 escort , il be running a 1660 crossflow with twin 40 webers so there wont be room for a servo , so which master cylinder would be best and size, il be running std pedal box , front discs and rear drums, front calipers are willwood four pots any thoughts ,replys much appreciated
jbxfr Posted June 3, 2014 Report Posted June 3, 2014 I am running a single 0.75 wilwood master cylinder retaining the standard pedal box with princess four pots and 9 inch drums after removing the servo.
mk2xflow Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Posted June 3, 2014 thanks mate ive looked at the willwood 0.75 and will probably go that route
mk2xflow Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Posted June 3, 2014 I take it its the remote willwood 0.750 one ure using mate
jbxfr Posted June 3, 2014 Report Posted June 3, 2014 Yes that's the one The linkage needs to be extended slightly to fit the standard pedal box. Works well.
mk2xflow Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Posted June 3, 2014 did you have to weld an extension on or did you buy a screw on adapter extention type part?
jbxfr Posted June 3, 2014 Report Posted June 3, 2014 Screw on extension, I got mine from Ashton mobile others like motorsport tools do a similar part.
mk2xflow Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Posted June 3, 2014 thanks mate bit new to messing with brakes found this on ebay from motorsport tools , I take it the standard rod end fits this?
mk2xflow Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Posted June 3, 2014 or I could use the integral master cylinder from willwood keeps with original look
jbxfr Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 I adapted a remote reservoir by cutting off the flared end of the thread and used a copper washer to seal it. Alternatively you can use a push on reservoir bottle and use the AP inlet push on kit. The integral cylinder capacity is on the small side. This is how my looks on the car.
