Brake servo?
I am currently zetec'ing the mk3 and have a problem with the engine fouling the brake servo!!! (big cylindrical black box thing with vaccum pipe) lol
this is because the inlet+exhaust manifolds are on opposite sides!!
what are my options here... how easy is it to move this and relocate it (for example on the opposite side of the bulkhead) or are there any other things i can buy to save the hassel??
any ideas+as much info as possible will be appreciated

and out of interest, can i fit a different servo for example from a mk1 escort which is smaller in diameter (probably resulting in a lower assistance) but some at least (better than not having one!)

did i get you right ? Is the servo itself bumping into your engine? Or is it just connecting the pipe thats the problem? can you please post a pic so maybe i can give you some proper help?

just cos there smaller don't mean the ratio is different you find that the small dia versions are deeper check a hanyes manual for ratios

As said remote servo it, fords have used these for years, ie corsair etc were remote.
Servo size/surface area of diaphragm dictates assistance, depth will not alter anything as vacuum does not act on depth but surface area.
