    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.

    It was painted with a pressure pack in the middle of winter. I had to use Mrs GTS's hair dryer to get it warm enough to dry the paint.....I still haven't been able to get the red fingerprints off it yet.

    I bought some more bundy tube to make my own.

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