Here are some better (I hope) pics. The tip of the master is 8 3/4" from the firewall. I made my adapter to position the MC so that I would not have to notch the rib for the rear fitting. To save space, you could just drill a couple of holes for the GM master to bolt directly to the firewall. That would save 5/8".
As I said, this is a '74 F carb on a 2F manifold and it uses the old style cable linkage. I needed to raise the carb enough to clear the bellcrank on the cable linkage. My new JimC carb has a different cable setup, the one they use in Oz. I guess because of the RHD deal they are all cable linked?
Sounds like Mark is all for a dual circuit braking system, just not in favor of the GM master? That was what I was trying to find out. IIRC, it has a 1" bore, but there are also stock FJ40 masters with an even larger bore. Seems like I read something about that. Dunno
