    RAM Pedal Box Marina/Ital?

    Hey,

    Got to the point of putting my brake lines and pedal box into place on my chassis.

    I have I believe a Morris Marina Pedal box, the one with a single output master cylinder and metal reservoir.

    I realise this master cylinder is useless as I need independent feed for the front and rear brakes and clear indication of level. Is it the Morris Ital Cylinder that I need? Will it mate up to the servo I currently have. If so, where do I get one? Also looking to change the master cylinder out of course, any good suppliers for these?

    Failing that, has anyone put in a better pedal box all together? I plan to track the car alot.


    Any help would be great
    Adam

    Think I might be blind, can't see one on their website.

    Don't mind using the current set-up so long as I can get hold of the right bits

    Yep. The master will probably need a rebuild though!

    If you can find anything more recent to use, then do, as Marina/Ital masters and rebuild kits are fast approaching rocking horse manure to find.

    Ah right, I am starting to get that impression!

    What do you guys think to this...

    o Professional Motorsport Parts, Spares & Rally Equipment from Rally Design

    I know I would need to render it un-adjustable and fabricate a mount for it. Do you think not having a servo would make it a nightmare on the road?

    i used one from these chaps.
    GD never use servo brakes, and have no issues

    you can use a balance bar without rendering it permanently affixed, fitted, as long as you have a statement that reads something like"adjusting the brake bias may lead to brake efficiency being incorrect for safe operation" or something like that in the vicinity of the brake pedals, and nylocs to prevent it loosening itself after adjusting
