Brake Servo

This is in relation to the Cosworth V6 question posted earlier - I have done some measurements and it appears that the top of the engine will fowl on the brake servo.

I was wandering if anyone has used an alternative arrangement to the recommended pilgrim setup when it comes to the pedal box and servo. for example, is it possible to have a remote servo?

Any guidance would be great. I don't want the engine change to take up too much work if at all possible!

Pete....

Re: Brake Servo

I got a dual remote servo from S V C. its cheaper than buying 2 for dual circuit brakes. S V C said that the XK replica people use them
