do twin master cylinders use a servo?
Hi guys,
i'm thinking of junking my donor's pedal box and buying one with twin master cylinders, for better braking balance (my donor beemer
weighed the best part of 2 tons) but do twin master cylinder systems use a servo?
if so where does it go?
if not, what is the braking like? is the pedal heavy or hard?
Thanks,
Sam
Had enough of this dictatorship known as LCB. Gone elsewhere, not coming back. Kiss my ass ChrisW.

never seen a servo in a twin M/C set up...
i drove a legends car a few years back, not sure how the weight compares to a 7, but i didn't find the brake too hard. needs a bit more effort,
but as long as you know that, it shouldn't be a problem i don't think
i'll be having a twin MC with no servo, my car should be just under a ton

My V8 viento has a mass of 800+ Kg ( depending on how my diet is going!)
and is quite easy to stop with just the twin cylinder set up.

Just using standard size discs as well - no fancy large ones.

I've never had a problem with any car with a twin m/c with no servo..
but did see a servo set up advertised somewhere demon tweeks maybe.. think it was for a pugeot 205/106 or maybe a vw golf
