Just checked your post, Is that a single circuit master cyl? I dont think a 5/8 master will run 4 pots and rear calipers. They need a lot of fluid to displace and imo 5/8 will not do it without a lot of pedal travel

Hey.
Well, schools out on the master at the mo.
The front calipers came after the master.
At the moment it compresses up nicely - you can fairly jump on the pedal and it'll only get 1/2 way.
Wether it stays like this once the pads have bedded and it's under load - yet to see.
My Mechanic friend who guided me through this process who also races (raced) seems to think it will be fine.
If not - i'll address it when i get there.
I cerntainly can make any claims yet :-P
Thanks.

Hey Matt.
No i don't i'm sorry. I''l see if i can get you one.
Not that hard though. I got a spare standard pushrod. get three tensile nuts that fit the MC. Wind them onto a bolt (a scrap one). You will need to fillet the edges a little because you are going to weld the three nuts together and you want the weld to fill the fillets.
(If your not sure what that means best get a welding friend to do it)
Don't tighten the nuts together or you'll never get them back off the bolt, just put them up to each other.
Weld them. Carefull not to go all the way through and weld them to the bolt.
Now cut your rod to the right length for your pedal. Leave a little extra coz you want to grind a litte nub on the end that will push into the first nut a bit. To locate it and and to provide a seat for the nut to rest against. Fillet this also and weld.
And thats it, all going well it will thread onto the MC. Make sure you have a lock nut.
Don't use less than 3 nuts to ensure you have enough thread onto the MC shaft.
Good luck.
Daz.

Thanks Mate.
 
Sounds good in theory but a picture says a thousand words.  If you can dig up a pic that would be great.
 
Cheers

Happy to help matt.
The base as seen will be fibreglass. Then styrene filling and then skinned in CF.
Just haven't decided wether to put the gauges in console or over the top of the cluster.
It's a toughy.
