Is this ok for sva, its for a hydro clutch. basicaly from the master cylinder i have made a 180deg. copper pipe that connects to a flexi hose that goes to the slave cylinder.

also does it need a low fluid indicator

The SVA would not really cover anything like this I think.

I would secure the free end of the copper pipe with a bracket so it doesn't vibrate, but otherwise ok

You don't need a low fluid level warning for the clutch.

Cheers

as used on land rovers since the year dot. no probes with that at all - but as said, ensure the pipe is secured as you would for brakes and that the hose is secured on chassis/gearbox. (land rover have a small length of pipe from slave to hose )

Exactly the same as a classic mini arrangement. The junction of the copper pipe and the flex hose is through a bracket attached to the bulkhead.

The verto clutch setup on a mini has a reducer in the clutch piping to increase pressure and will not work without it if I remember right.
