    Hegar brake master cylinder?

    I just bought a pair of Hegar Brake master cylinders to install in a Rans 6 (going from single hand brake to dual toe brakes) and have a few questions- No instructions were included nor (as far as I can find) are available on their site- I assumed that written instructions would be included but...

    I have a pile of English carbs off of MG type cars and am thinking that they would be OK for the 1/2 VW engine.
