Thank you, glad to see i'm not the only one in this situation.
I think I found a M/C casting 5460465. Should be here rebuilt in a couple of weeks.

So that picture is wrong ?
I'm trying to understand how the 5452310 (most likely after market) on my car worked for all these years.
I want to replaced it with a correct  m/c but I want to be sure what to look for and make sure a 5460465 will work.

Decoding/Numbers / master cylinder casting number

« on: February 27, 2015, 12:18:28 AM »

According to the CRG article on master cylinder a 68 manual brake should have a master cylinder with casting number 5452310( without bleeders) and power should be 5460465(with bleeders).
On my car 4 drums power I have a 5352310, also if you look at the picture on the CRG article you see a picture of a master cylinder attached to a booster without bleeders !! Can somebody shine the light on that one ?
thanks

Maintenance / Horn and key buzzer not working

« on: July 26, 2013, 10:54:12 PM »

Hi Guys, everything was working fine on my 68 but I noticed the other day that my horn and my key buzzer did not work anymore.
Any ideas where I should start looking?
Wires are connected properly on the horn and on the horn relay.Fuse is ok.
thanks

Originality / power steering clamp

« on: May 31, 2012, 02:58:10 PM »

Where is the correct location for the clamp that holds on one of the power steering hoses ? (which bolt of the steering box cover) and which hose (return)? I think p/n is 9420534

thank you
