Have a look at the Moss or Victoria British Spit catalogues on-line. There
are two dual line masters that come to mind, known as the small-cap or
large-cap, referring to the size of the cap on the plastic reservoirs. I
_think_ they changed to the small mouth in 76. Aside from the caps on the
reservoirs, the small-cap is longer than the large cap; mounting a small cap
(longer) where a large cap was, will likely create clearance issues with the
bulkhead.
The threads in the master are different as well, so it will be best to
replace with an identical unit.

Subject: [Spits] Help in identifying brake parts
I have been reading the list for years now but this is my first post!
I am in the process of getting my spitfire back on the road after
about ten years, I am losing my storage space and plan to make it
into an every-other day driver.
I just spent the weekend doing the GM alternator swap(works great)
and sorting out the wiring. Now I am moving on to the brakes.
The problem is that it is built from several different vehicles. It
is a MK2 but It has a rotoflex rear end and a dual brake
mastercylinder. My question is how do I identify the mastercylinder
and the wheel cylinders. the wheel cylinders might be the spit four
or the gt6. The dual line master cylinder could be later spit or TR6.
Thanks for any help,
Chris
