Hi guys, I've got a rv8 recently installed in my mgb. I need to connect the vaccum hose from the brake servo to the inlet manifold. Its running strombergs atm. I.ve got the pipe in place which is fine.

On the manifold side of things I need a union that screws into the top of the inlet manifolds that the pipe pushes onto, does anyone know where I can get such a piece????

atm there is a banjo union on there whith a very small pipe on it that has been blocked off. I guess the landrover the engine came out of had a differnt braking system??

thanks guys n galls!

On a Land Rover there is a tapped port on either number 4 or number 2 inlet tract to which a boss with a non-return valve built in is fitted. IIRC it fits a 3/8" bore hose...see:
