Yes,a smaller bore will mean you have a lower bite point but if you have a high bite point at present you will lighten your pedal force and go some way to improving your clutch.
A servo will give a...

Stick with a good Calcium 4-5 year guarantee battery. Bosch S5 s4 or even Halfords own Calcium both lasted me 10 years and still going but I replaced them as a matter of maintenance.

Depends on if you have agreed value and look at break down cover at the same time. £200 is very reasonable plus break down on top at about £50 for Europe cover is what I would be paying.

Recommended oils for none LSD are discussed earlier.
Upgraded a none LSD to LSD. Dont waste your time just buy a LSD diff and send it away for refurb and derate at the same time. Sell your open...

Nice video. Hope to see you producing more. The electronic handbrake seems to be a hot topic..I can see some value in producing a kit of parts for common manufacture like Ak , Dax , GD..As you stated...

You can carry out a check to see if it is de-rated with the break away test.
I tested a LSD from a XJS V12 1987 and the measurements were in the de-rated section.
The clutch surfaces wear and the...

It also depends on the pipe thickness. A larger pipe will move more volume over the same travel.

Yes I reduce mine from .625 to a .5 and the travel increased but lighter pedal.

That's what I thought it said until I put my glasses on.

I have used all of the systems , pressure system with a tyre which is great if you have a good cap fit but a good way of spraying brake fluid every where ! I find the hand pump kits the most...

That sounds a good result with the change. Also bare in mind the old spring would be weaker. Do you have all iron or ali heads.

Nice video update on the detailed items you have carried out.

Lsd diff I use VALVOLINE 75W90 LIMITED SLIP OIL - VAL-LS.
You dont need the LSD additive.

Check if you have a drain plug which means you have a Salisbury diff..No drain plug means you have a Dana 44 diff which uses different discs.
Some XJS cars were supplied with these diffs in the...
