Pick is a bit misleading - they are both the same length - to the mm.

Will go with the 7/8' one I think - because it's new and I think it will work with the discs - should also give me a bit more assistance and I've never been short on pedal travel. Pedal ratio is 4.9 to 1, but had a close look and I could indeed change this without too many dramas to give myself a little bit more, but will leave this unless I think the end result isn't quite what I'm after. With the dual diaphragm booster I've never had any issues with how it stops - I could lock up the 36" tyres if needed, so thinking I'm not going to have any issues, just the benefits of having brakes that will always pull up straight and not require as much maintenance. To be honest, the drums have been great since I rebuilt them a couple of years back but I'm still happy to be leaving them behind. Have all the dimensions from everything now, so will sit down and run some calculations - which the Engineer wants to see anyway.
Ive just finished my Servo delete and the pedal is ok but a tad firm with the 1-1/8 MC , and have just ordered a 7/8 MC which is identical externally.( I could do with a bit of extra travel / feel) 2nd one down in this listing will be the same as yours (569671D ) not sure of the proper part number , most vendors don't list the bore size.
