Re: brake MC interchange

[Tony Stevens <tony@domain.elided>]

Further to Marko Mataja's request for ATE BMC types, the "22" cylinders
are 22mm diameter & were fitted to cars with servos, the "20" cylinders
were fitted to cars without servos.
Which type is correct is best determined by whether a servo was fitted
since all other dimensions (caliper piston sizes etc) are identical.
Hope that this info is of help. Kits for "20" & "22"mm ATE BMC are
available from Alfa Stop!
