The M/C I used is from a datsun 120y (to get a better ratio to suit the caliper set up I have) and is mounted with bolts at north and south where as the standard one is east and west hence the need for the spacer / mount.
 
Cheers,

Thanks for that, the east west bolts are a pain in the backside to get access to especially the inner bolt, cheers for the reply

How hard is the petal without the booster? Im thinking of doing 120y set up too. Is it just a bolt.on and bleed set up?

Yep, the pedal is fine, not too hard at all.

Im thinking of doing something like this with my mk1 project. People have told me remote booster works well? I have no idea how they work or where to fit or if its worth it. Is the pedal feel without the booster good for a street car?
