I know this isn't your goal and it's already been discussed, but I *just* finished putting a 1800E/ES master cylinder and the necessary plumbing into my '66 122. The 140 master cylinders do not have a stop to limit the backwards movement of the ram, which would allow it to fall out into the cabin! I used an adaptor offered by ipd to mount the horizontal bolts to the existing vertical mount on the pedal box. I would have just drilled new holes but the pedal box is too narrow for both to fit without doing something silly like moving the pedal and master cylinder over an inch or so.

I thought about the dual diagnal system that's in my 180 and 140, but that seemed like a lot of work. Maybe later, though.

Unemployment is great. I can finally get these projects done that have been lagging for months now. Then again, I don't have a job. Maybe not that great.

Busy picture but you get the idea.
