For my clubby.
I have 2 pairs, a pair of the late type with plastic resivour, and 2 tins, 1 being the big type for disks.
Are there bore size differences? Because i want to use the tins, i think they look better. 8)

They come in 2 sizes, 0.70" and 0.75".
I would measure yours, but the tall tank brake one should be 0.70".

Generally the .75" one is best for clutches, as the 0.7s barely move enough fluid.

Most brake MCs (disc or drum) are 0.70" except for orphans like the early 850 (0.75") and the 998 Cooper (0.625").
If you swap to a 0.75" the brake pedal will be HEAVIER.

I reckon they'll look funny on a clubman Tom.... but you're driving it, so I guess it suits

bore is the same with the big tin, just extra capacity

Yep, I think I would look funny driving anything. The pedestrians won't know any better.

I recently fitted a Cooper S M/C to Ash's clubby. Doesn't look too out of place when you see it next to the tin can clutch M/C :wink:
