It turns out that if I rotated the clutch master cylinder so it were vertical it would fit behind the head, *just*. But the brake servo is the issue - it's massive! I've found OBP make a drop-in pedal box but their boxes aren't the best. I'm sure it will do for me, but I've seen people using them in anger on a track bend them before. I'm not confident fabricating something like that though so drop-in or nothing I guess! They come with cheap Chinese master cylinders which I'll need to swap for some wildwood ones or something.

I'm pretty sure wilwood do their own version of that, I've looked at them before.

Makes sense, that is a Wildwood cylinder. All that makes it different from a normal one is it's pull not push

Found these on eBay this morning. Thinner than the rubber isolators I have so shouldn't hit the steering column :thumbup1:

They are certainly interesting! I doubt they'd fit straight on as they are almost certainly for the older engine (like my dummy one) and the angle the intake bolts to the heads at is different. Plus management etc... Not right now Smile
