hi all

i'm having to remove the servo as part of my z20let install as the inlet manifold will catch on it.

I remembered a while ago that tiger did a shortened push rod that did they job. having looked on their website they do still sell them, but don't offer postage.

does anyone have a dimensioned drawing of the part so I can make one?

thanks, andy

It's a while ago now, but if I remember correctly, when I removed the servo from my 2B I used a length of threaded bar, with a nylock
nut used to form the domed end.

If you remove the servo you will have to press very hard on the brakes to stop the car unlees you change to a master cylinder for one more suited to non-servo use ie one with a smaller bore.

Contrast with experience of a lot of other builders...............
