Anybody know of any good ones now that GPR has shut shop, besides Demon Tweeks? Need to buy some master cylinders, so any help much appreciated.

Try a Girling catlogue. You may find that they are off something quite mundane and therefore a fraction of the price when sourced from a local motor factors.

What car are they for?

Ideally I need Tilton 74 series, I think the Girling one's are too small. I'm using it for my car a Golf Mk3, as I was doing a carb conversion, but the brake servo is in the way, hence the need for the master cylinders. But doing a little more reading it seems that Demon Tweeks are the only importers.

Rallynuts have a few Tilton products, although not what your looking for. It might be worth giving them a call to see if the can get what you need.

Hope that helps

Bruce Chambers was the Tilton expert at GPR and manned the Tilton stand at Autosport - he is clearly well respected by the Tilton guys in the USA (it was their stand)

He is now trading himself, specialising in Tilton product.

He was superb when I was speccing Tilton gear for my Sagaris GT, swapped starter motor bodies, sent me a loan bell housing and was the source of accurate advice. He is well worth supporting in my view.

www.competitionsupplies.com is the temporary website. Or call Bruce on 0845 052 6787

I have no link with him, I was just very happy with his service whilst at GPR and I would like to see a business out there that stocks or has access to the full Tilton range - unlike the other retailers who carry a limited selection.
