But, the type 9 gearbox has the clutch lever on the opposite side so the Wilwood pull cylinder gets in the way of the offset oil filter.
It wouldn't be a problem if the oil cooler (oil/water heat exchanger) wasn't leaking. So, unless I replace it or try a remote oil cooler sandwich plate I need a backup plan.
I had a search on the web and found a few tried and tested solutions. pistonheads was the version I decided to copy. It seems its also used on the TVRs .
A design was made in cardboard and then drawn in CAD for the laser cutting.A landrover slave was "found" in the garage.
The bore may be too big.
The template was bashed into shape.
A few flaws in the design meant a little cutting and adjustment was required at the pointy end.
It looks like it might work.. I haven't welded the seams yet.
Also it may get in the way of the sunbeam body.
Next time I have a few spare days I'll finish it off and test it with the master cylinder.
Note the Capri headers. Rusty and sawn off. These are available off the shelf - but look like they will definitely be in the way.
Update
A few shims were made to be able to adjust the master position and still be able to adjust the clevis.
The clevis itself was hard to find
