Looks similar to vs series 3 bracket that clutch m/cyl bolts to...they have remote reservoir near m/cyl.

Where clutch cable comes out of firewall on these right next to cylinder head on v8 models.

Yeah the VL one is pretty similar too.

I had a look at the VS one, and couldn't see if it had the same bolt offset/curved face as the VL one

Car went to the panel shop yesterday, so fopefully it’ll be nice and yellow by the time it gets back.

I’ll post updates of the rust repairs for those that are interested

So I thought I’d test print my clutch master bracket, turns out my measurements were slightly off… After I’d ordered it to be CNCd…

oh well. That’s R&D for you

so modified the bracket and printed again to test fit before ordering another

first tests look bang on, will take it down to the shop to test on the car

All I need to do is drill the holes in the pedal /pedal box and firewall. I’ll end up welding nuts on the inside of the pedal box.

I’ll also Mount on a mates VL to see if the hole is close enough to the original hole on the firewall, then look at tapping the holes for the master cylinder to see if I can make this a bolt on upgrade to sell in a kit.

I just found this :)

Haha, I was wondering if anyone would find it. I'm not the best camera man or narrator, but I hired my wife to hold it in the next one

Working on the second part now, going into detail about the clutch master
