Ive recently purchased a floor mounted pedal box for my 205 and obviously the fronts and rear will be on a different circuit. As with all aftermarket pedal box's these are non servo assisted. i have been looking into having some sort of servo assist as most people i know who have gone for non servo brakes haven't excatly got on with it well. Now i know old cars like mini's, MGB's have remote kind of inline mounted servo box's and was possibly looking at using one of these or a aftermarket servo box that i could hook up into the front circuit.
has anyone had any experience with using a servo on a pedal box or any good ideas?

thanks allSmile

.625 for front and 7 or 7.25 (or is it 7.5 ) for rear

it's all about getting the pivot point correct, then the bias box will work fine Smile

Even if you don't get the pivot right you can just run smaller master cylinders (although the pivot geometery is an important part), you just need to be careful to get as much slack out of the system as possible so you don't end up with excessive pedal travel.

I bought a mgb in line servo on eBay for about £70 which came from mgbeehive or somewhere like that. It improved the braking somewhat.
