Can't do any practical checks at present as car on stands for smaller 24mm dia front ARB fitting (which has been on my 'to do' list for ages). Will do some measurements with and without engine vacuum when I can and let you know. Hopefully with a large master cyl bore I should get much improved braking with less tendency to lock the wheels.

Ah ha! Just realised I have the Teves type calipers with one piston on a floating carrier per wheel. So for eight pistons read
four pistons total. Peter.
