[Fot] History's Mysteries...Spitfire Duel Master Plumbing...

I believe your initial assessment is correct.  That was my thought looking at the photo ... quick fix to get through an event / race.  You sound smart in replacing both masters and correcting the hook-ups.


Best of luck,

Hi Gang, 
 
I am trying to understand what may have happened with the duel master set up and it's plumbing. 
 
The front and rear circuits are both coming out of the right hand cylinder while the left hand cylinder is returning to itself. The car does have a prop valve for the rear brakes located in the cockpit.
 
One person suggested the the driver may have had a problem during a race weekend and simply re-plumbed to make it through a race weekend. The car was last raced in Sept 1976.
 
Should a line for each circuit simply go to each master cylinder? I have 2 new ones on order.
 
Your thoughts are appreciated!
 
 
Brad
