[Healeys] Disc Brake Upgrade

[Magnus Karlsson]

You can not use the 5/8" as the pedal will bottom out. There are one or two
sizes between the 5/8" and 7/8". Unfortunately I do not remember which one to
use but as said before I believe the next one up is ok. You do not have to go
as high as the 7/8" though, as it will, like someone said, result in a very
hard pedal.

> Actually, the master cylinder is dependent on whether the system is boosted
or not.  w/o boost use the BT7 brake/clutch master (they're the same) and with
booster use the BJ8 brake master cylinder.
