My Nova 16v Project

i suppose i need to find out the diameter, and the type of push fitting, ie: thickness of rubber etc

As long as you can get some sort of air tight seal on the pipe to the master cylinder - it should work

The supply of fluid to the master cylinder has no pressure to it - it's only gravity fed - may be possible to cut the bottom of the res off to leave just the seal/pipe and fix a tube/pipe to it with an olive fixing !!!!


Would need to see a reserviour to assist any further - It years since I've looked at one closely !!!!



Awaits someone to post a piccy ;)

In fact, thinking about it - Pushing a tight fit rubber hose over it with a jubilee clip would be a first class 'bodge'
However I would prefer a more Professional 'bodge' myself !!!!

I know its a diesel and using a pedal box - but it demonstrates the use of remote reservoirs and how they can be used to overcome problems ;)

I'm quite sure that if you took the MC to a couplings place you could get a connection that would screw in to the rubber on the MC and give you some thing to take off of on the other end.

Something that 'looks' like this

Deffo dooable.

agreed with dar here. wouldnt take a lot to runa line off off the MC a reservoir

still a brilliant idea chaps, and is something i'm going to look into doing.

but for now, luckily, the company i bought it from has offered me a full refund, which is nice of them, and i'm going to take them up on it (for now), should i get the remote resevoir done, then i will probably "re buy" another, but really don't want to miss out on getting a full refund without a percentage handling charge!

just gotta hope that rockingham is going to be nice to me... i have now, 3x devices to sort my noisey exhaust... and hopefully something in the pipeline for the induction :)

Attended a rolling road day today at JamSport in conjunction with VauxSport

I had my mapping done only 3 weeks ago at Track n Road and made 197.7bhp @ 7620rpm

Today at Jamsport, different rollers, different software, different time of day and weather - still made 196bhp @ 7620rpm < exactly the same peak power rpm! also made 154lbft of torque. :thumb:

Less than half a percent difference between the rollers, so i'm pleased to say they must be pretty accruate

couple of pics to come :)

Sweet result :)

Good to hear good comments about their rollers too.
See how they are at the png rr day next month :)

nice one olly..

good news about the figure's :thumb:

pfffft my std engine made the same torque :p lol
Hope the pics came out well :D
