Looking real nice. Saw you at combe smoking away but so were lots of other cars like crocks. Scared to take my car on there in case the smoke turns into disaster. What have you done to make the standard servo master cylinder clear the dizzy on your engine? I'm trying to work out what to do when I get my engine change going.

Its difficult to explain in detail, but very basicaly you just widen the mounting bracket and pivot so you can slide the servo over a 1" or so, ill try to get a pic of a normal bracket beside my modified one so u can see the changes >_<

ah ha I see. A pic would be cool but that does make total sense. I'm the kinda person that needs it being done there and then to work it out, not just look at it in place and think of ideas.
