Which master cylinder
I've been searching for a while and can't really decide which brake master cylinder i need. I've read up about using early fiesta
ones, sierra ones mounted at an angle and found there are different sierra ones but what one do i need and where is the best place to get one? I
didn't get one with the other donor parts so have nothing to compare.

My kit came with a bias bar pedal box, if you decide to go that way instead, your welcome to try it for size.

usual MK one is a sierra one there are a couple of variations, I had a replacement on which required me to widen the hole on the bulkhead
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Sounds interesting. Do these work well with standard sierra calipers?

I have this mc as well and it works really well with standard Sierra brakes.

If you look under 'Fiat 124 excl sport', it is part number BMC4020 - £16.20 ex vat.
The brake pipes connect in the same way as any other tandem MC - split circuit to front brakes, singe circuit to rear.
You then need suitable hose to connect the two fluid inlets to a reservoir. For IVA you will need a reservoir with a level switch.

What are the sizes of the reservoir hoses?? this may be the ideal solution
( and cost ) for me as well. So where to get hose and a reservoir??
Oh and will I still need my escort pressure valve in the rear line to keep the front to rear ratios still be the same.

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Got my 124 master cylinder today. Fantastic service from brakes international, only ordered yesterday. The hose would need to be 8mm which can be
bought from CBS as well as the resovoir.
