the braking system is mainly from ford cortina/granada at front and jaugar at rear, but (there is always a but...lol): where does the Servo and Master-Cylinder come from? (German) granadas and cortinas use the brand "ATE", mine is fitted with a girling one. are these interchangeable without changing the servo? (by the way: my master cylinder is a 3 connection one).

Recently had a girling master replaced. The garage had to use the numbers/letters off the casting with girling to get the correct part rather than what car.

..but for what reason: the flange-dimension on the servo-unit?

They could not match from a Ford model. It was easier to get the numbers and ask the maker to be sure of getting the right part.
