Title: '67 brake reservoir options
Post by: Brian Rogers on August 31, 2014, 05:03:00 am
On the old Cal-look.com, there was a discussion on eliminating the stock reservoir and hoses and mounting it directly on to on top of the master cylinder. If I recall it was a poly plastic that had the same spacing to go into the inlet ports of the MC. The doner vehicle was a Volvo I think but I don't know the model to look for. Could someone remember this and post the pertinate info so I can start looking?
Thanks again for your help.

You can buy new version now so no need for hunting, So Cal imports produce it under the ACL brand I think, everyone stocks it now, here's a link to it

Isn't the gastank an obstruction when filling the reservoir?

Not really if you've set up and bled your system before adding the tank. Found one at pick n pull for $5.00. Good condition to. Just add from the side when you pull the wheel.

Why not use the Wolfsburg West 67 only reservoir?

Because that just put it back in the stock restored position. I'm wanting to tiddy up that area and move it to another area away from plainsight. Under the tank it's hidden from view. Once the system is bled I only need to glance to see fluid I the resivior.
