Ok here's the problem:
My Mk1 was based on what appeared to have once been a 60s Cooper S judging by the previous engine number (not with car of course...) and the fact it was previously fitted with a twin bolt subframe. It also had the single-circuit brakes & master cylinder of a Cooper S.
What I need to know is this: What do I need to convert it to Dual-circuit? You will need to be specific as all the cars I have dealt with in the past had everything fitted. Part numbers would be useful.
I am assuming that I need the right type of master cylinder (I am not interested in having a servo), then the proportioning valve which mounts onto the front bulkhead and a splitter at the rear of the car. However, which ones am I looking for???
Or should I just ditch this idea and stick with single-circuit? Both the single-circuit MCs I have need rebuilds - so either way will cause headaches.
PS For info the brakes will be standard 8.4" discs & callipers with spacer drums on the rear. I have a set of brake pipes ready to bend up still in their packaging which came with the car.
