Braking and MC

Just wanna run summat past you all. Am I righ in thinking that for my braking system, just standard Sierra stuff, I just need a Sierra master cylinder and reservoir (standard item?) and I've read the book and that but is it normal to just go the split route (i.e. 2 pipes to front, 1 to back) and finally no servo needed? I just imagine it being like braking your car when the ignitions switched off.

yep - just like the good old days .... but you'll have less than half the mass to stop so shold be fine.

not sure if all sierra's had servo or not - but even with the servo ones, the m/c can be taken off but you'd need a new ew push rod - search about it here; sure it's been done a zillion times.

Yeah had a good search but just wanted to clarify I'd got it right ta. What about a brake biasing valve? Will I need summat like this to direct more to the front or will it be right because of the split system?
