Brake and Clutch Master Cylinder Final Fit

Once all the brake lines had been run, I performed the final fit of the brake and clutch master cylinders. I had to purchase a new aftermarket clutch master cylinder because the original was past service. I decided to get a new slave cylinder as well.

The brake master cylinder needed no spacing from the chassis to get the pedals to a reasonable position.

The clutch master cylinder needed the reservoir rotating by 180degrees to clear the bulkhead, and spacing out from the chassis by approx 20mm to get what felt like a good pedal and throw on the pedal (once the engine and gearbox is in I will check again).

I bought some aluminium spacers from eBay and used M8 bolts and washers torqued to 20Nm.
