Tubular steel M/C not the cast ones, the holes don't line up

Just because I'm different.

I have the same; M16 front and 8" rear drums but I have a Nissan Micra m/cyl' and booster. M/cyl' is 20.6 diameter.

It works really well and the pedal feels great.

'Tina fronts, Sierra drums on the back.

I've used the 'Tina M/C with an Escort filler cap for a level switch.

I hope to get away with no balance valve.
Seems OK, although it hasn't been on a rolling road yet.
