sinbox does that everyday and ive just figured out that it has a hq to z wheel cylinder on one side and a wb on the other..being wb it should have wb on both sides..seeing as ive never touched the brakes it makes sense to me now..new brakes next mission for sinbox.

I just checked my HJ GMH parts book and it shows F2F and R2R.....but, being a new master cylinder, I guess that's all changed.

So......front res to the rear and rear res to the front?

Correct. Best idea is to find some HZ brake lines that go between the master and the distribution block as HZ had these arse about cylinders standard. Otherwise bend the lines to suit, just looks crappy. I got an old HQ cast iron cylinder rebuilt for my HJ to avoid that issue.

That is a nice tidy engine bay!

As Borat says: Very nice! 'igh fivee!"

Now that engine bay looks showroom standard.

I bought some more bundy tube to make my own.

Thanks to all for your help.....I just hope it works.

Actually too neat! Engine is painted way to carefully!
