Chris McLaughlin fitted an MGB one to Joe's Firenza. The build thread is on the forum with the details.

Is it a servo or non-servo car? I've got a new non-servo master cylinder, the non-servo ones are a smaller bore than the servo ones.

I believe this is the thread David is referring to: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=24431
