Very quickly, am I right in thinking at after a certain age cars have to have twin brake set ups & if so when did this become law?

How many MOT testers will know that these days or even be bothered to think about it, Id be surprised if anyone had an issue with the MOT and a single master cylinder on a late car.

VOSSA might not be as forgiving though *oh well*

Cheers guys, my clubby is a 78 and had a twin master cylinder when I brought it, just wandering if I can get away with a single master cylinder or if I have to keep the twin set up.

on a different note if you get a yellow tag twin its got a .75 bore for the front helping with fluid movement to the front brakes.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!
