I'd like to fit a bigger master cylinder, is there a simple bolt on one? I'm going for the 300mm front disc conversion and I'm worried the MC is not going to have a big enough bore

Hi.
I have fitted 300 mm discs with Mk2 Mondeo calipers. A straight swap but the caliper mounting bolt holes need to be drilled out to 12 mm. Brakes are very good no need to change the master cylinder. My Puma is a 2000 model I don't know if earlier models had a smaller master cylinder. What wheels will you be using?
Regards,
Richard

I'm going to be using the Thunder wheels, but I've been told they will fit underneath with some minor adjustments to the calipers.
It is good to know the master cylinder should be big enough to cope, mine is a 2001 Thunder

Same here, mine was a 2002 reg' with the 300mm ST170 disc & Mondeo caliper setup. Master cylinder wasn't changed when I fitted them but the braking performance was huge compared to the standard 258mm that were on it.
