Which master cylinder to use?
What's the reccomended master cylinder setup on a tiger Avon / Haynes roadster?
Not looking for a bias setup it's initially just a road car
Thanks

fwiw, On my Haynes I have just used an mx5 m/c and fixed bias valve, but replaced the reservoir with a remote one (focus) atop the bulkhead
remember we are not mad just creatively insane !!!!!

Fiat 126 is used a lot. A few of the supplies, CBS or Rally Design do some kit aimed ones too.

Mk1 fiesta non servo master cylinder.
I put one on mine to replace the standard Sierra cylinder, loads more feel slightly more travel.

Yes, the two rearmost ones are for the front brakes - one to each caliper, and the single front port goes to the rear drums [via the pressure switch
for the brake light on mine].

Great thanks that's what I thought, is the pressure regulator a fiat part or other? Also how have you done your brake light switch?

As above for the brake light switch.
Much more reliable.
Just converted mine to a switch on the pedal,as I found my brake lights were not working the majority of the time,until you really pressed them hard
which you hardly do under normal driving on the road.

I'll check my brake lights but they certainly came on really easily last time I checked.
Thanks for the heads up.

I received my master cylinder today, is there anywhere I can buy the rubber boot for the pushrod end for the fiat 124 cylinder?
