Nothing like some Vic Reaves for a Friday afternoon.

Looks good. Glad they left the leads long so they could be trimmed to suit - they look very neat.

Huffer? check.
Magneto? check.
Slave cylinder?

Time for some circle work :mrgreen:
You're going round in circles all the tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime...

Cheers,

Excuse the pics but thinking of these hinges to solve some space issues around the carby - the only mod required is cutting of a section of drip tray - does that have much effect on water ingress does anyone know? Would match in ok with a rub with fine wet and dry rather than painting
Hinges from V6 conversions

No sorry but V6 conversions can probably help - looks like their support bracket

Hey Clint the booster looks like one from eBay that I put in Frank but it looks like they have turned it 90 degrees and used an adapter plate to mount the standard 9/16" bore commodore master cylinder.
The ones on eBay have a 2 bolt mount for the master and if you look between the master and the booster in the photo you can see a vertical plate there also the little non return valve for the booster is up on the top which suggest to me it has been turned.
When I was having trouble with my brakes I looked at maybe doing this but put it in the too hard basket :lol: :lol:
