 I like the weld-in brake bias adjuster that Tilton sells. You can weld it
to the existing pedal and mount two cylinders. takes some twiddling, but my
TR3 looks almost stock.

I installed this system on my TR-3 when SCCA required a dual system (the
same 
year that Hardy and Jack Wheeler retired their Triumphs).  Two brake
master 
cylinders and a clutch master cylinder are supplied.  A little larger
hole 
needs to be cut in the firewall, but it uses the existing pedal
assemble, which 
does not have to be removed.  

I gained some finger mussels back then from bending copper tubing in the

engine compartment.  I also left the brake light switch connected to the
front 
brake circuit.  You have to get use to shoving harder on the brake pedal
to slow 
down or stop.
