Most Canadian model Minis all had a dual brake system of some sort! The latest models had this square plastic cannister (reservoir). This twin outlet master has separate circuits for front and rear brakes; it's recognized by the rectangular reservoir and small cap. Both circuits are thread for 10mm pipe nuts. If you are upgrading to a safer, dual line system this is the one to use. Note: Does not come with the brake switch. It has a blanking bolt fitted - the switch is no longer available.

IMPORTANT FITTING INSTRUCTIONS:
This unit must be bench-bled before installation. Prior to installing the cylinder onto the vehicle, place a block of wood underneath the pedal to prevent the pedal from traveling all the way to the floor during final bleeding. If the pedal travels to the floor it will damage the internals of the cylinder and, if equipped, upset the PWDA switch. Using silicone brake fluid will void any warranty.

Ensure the correct DOT4 or DOT5.1 brake fluid is used as these cylinders are not designed to use anything else such as Castrol SRF for racing or any silicone fluid.

Question:
I have a 1972 Classic Austin Mini which has been changed from front drums to 7.5 cooper s discs. rear are 7 inch drums, standard ?. it still has the early type dual master and the shuttle valve. problem is brake pedal requires extreme pressure to stop the car. Is the problem the master and if so which of the later master cylinders is correct?
Answer:
Hard to say what the issue might be. It would depend on if the car was sitting, the condition of the brake hoses and the age of fluid. If changing the master there is a more Canadian specific one: https://www.minimania.com/part/GMC167/Classic-Austin-Mini-Brake-Master-Cylinder-Dual-Late-For-Canada-Models

I would assume either are fine for discs and drums. Any OEM type 1984 or later would be that type but be aware lots of folks switched to front Cooper S discs on Minis before then who used masters that weren't necessarily made for a front disc set-up.
