Hello. I've followed the classic forums here for a long time but just decided to join. I was wondering if anyone on here has upgraded their rear wheel cylinders to the .875 bore Girling units used in the Sunbeam Alpine MkI. If yes, what were your results?

The new cylinders are installed and, yes, pedal travel significantly increased. I can't really comment on the effectiveness of the upgrade as the brakes are still bedding-in.
