i would say 99% no but haveing never tried maybe they could (but really doubt it)
but if you have drums on the front i'm pretty sure they're the same size cylinders as the FB/EK

brings me to a question doesn't yor engineer want front disc brakes fitted

no worries, i just checked my manual and they are different (hr has a seperate adjuster and ek is built in.)
they have a different bore size too (ek is 1 1/16" and hr is 1")
cheers, luke.

I believe you need EH and up backing plates to use HR cylinders and or brakes on an early housing.
