The Marina roadster I have just started to rebuild has the original single circuit brakes.
For safety I would like to change to dual circuit but so far I have failed to find a tandem master cylinder. They seem to be like hens teeth.
So the questions are:
Are there any downsides to dual circuit? I know that the dual circuit brakes on a Spifire have a dreadful reputation...
Where might I find a master cylinder? I have tried all the usual places with no joy.
As I understand it the bore of the non servo master cylinder is 0.7" (the servo one is 0.75"). Can anyone confirm that?
At this stage I don't want to consider using a master cylinder from another vehicle, with the associated hassle of modification, as I see some others have done.
I am also not currently considering a servo although that might change!
Cheers Robin
