Master Cylinder Heatshield

Post by daz635 »

Can anyone who has fabricated a heat shield for a master cylinder post up a photo

Just need some possible ideas for a design and how to attach it

Heat from my exhaust is causing mine to overheat and stick on

Thanks

I fabricated one many years ago as of course the later RHD models had the master cylinder on the right side of car next to the exhaust manifold. I assume yours has the same MC location?

Top half of the shield is just cable tied to the booster servo input pipe:

Somewhere behind the steering UJ there is a stud/or captive nut which secures the bottom half of the shield:
