    Had one of them on my series 3 and and it had half decent brakes, one pump most of the time compared to the previous series two which needed up to three pumps plus a clairvoyant so you could know in advance when to start pumping. Originality is great but you cant beat safety and practicality.

    Looks great, personally I'd go a new holden brake booster, preferably one from a V8 if it's any better than the one you have in it. Your car is allready plumbed up to accept it so you might as well get a good one in there and upgrade the brakes as well.

    G'day Banjo

    I would check to see if the Master Cylinder bore is he same as on the Landy, Landrover= 1"(25mm) bore 1 1/2"(38mm) stroke

    The Holden one would be easier to service,and parts would be more available, there is a Company in Victoria that specialises in Booster Reconditioning of all makes, on a change over basis, I had one of their business cards but can't find it they go to most of the big Swap Meets

    cheers

    A disc brake conversion might be of interest

    Look at the link below
