Couldn't have put it better

Ah, I need to learn to read

I'd probably pull the head, will make removal a LOT easier since you can then heat around the siezed plug. New gasket is ~£20 and you can re-use the bolts. It's a scary job first time but as long as you are methodical you'll manage it no probs Mike!

Need more info... Finally someone else with a proper car

Yeah looks sturdy enough

Use steel bolts if you have issues with them coming loose. Make sure you use grease as well as that threadlock, or the bolts won't be coming out again.

Try a little more torque, 8Nm should be safe.

Ignore the computer, do a full tank before worrying.

I quite like the doors, haha. Car is wacky, doors are wacky, s'all good.

This is a great brain teaser! Hmm. I don't think it's as simple as 50:50, because you know there are only two data sets and you know they aren't exclusive of each other due to your prior knowledge. So........... Thinking through this out loud... there are 2 possible sets of data: Set a - 1 boy (item 1) + 1 boy (item 2) Set b - 1 girl (item 3) + 1 boy (item 4) They have brought one boy with them, so either they have brought item 1, item 2 or item 4. If they brought item 1, that leaves item 2 at home. If they brought item 2, that leaves item 1 at home. If they brought item 4, that leaves item 3 at home. So that leaves 3 scenarios for the remaining item - boy, boy, girl. So I'd say the possibility of the remaining kid being a boy is 2 out of 3. Wow, my gut feel was 1/3 but my (probably flawed ) maths said otherwise!

Oh I see. Not really. Grinder, welder, sheet of thin steel, go crazy!

Not really, would easy enough to make one too. Some sort of rocker with one end attaching to the clevis on your hydro master, other end on the standard clutch cable. More complicated than you'd need, but gives the idea: Might be a much easier option for you given the shape of your footwell... Those pedal boxes go into kit cars etc pretty easily, but they are so square that I can't imagine them being anything other than a PITA for a 'regular' shell.

Pretty sure you can get cable to hydro converters. Looks like you'll need to get handy with the welder and grinder to make that pedal box fit anywhere near... Or change it for a top mounted one.

It's really weird seeing a photo of that bike in really high quality... haha. Looks ace.

Yeah, Gaz are turd. OE manufacturers for the win.

Fish and chips for tea? Winner. Seriously though, if that is what I think it is... great news, congrats

The official Magura ones aren't as bad, but they are a bit slower than normal. They are too short though really, and getting hold of one will be tricky now.

I don't see why not - there would need to be some custom spacery jiggery pokery though.

Mine have been pretty much bang on in the past

The hose is a little smaller, yes, but it's mainly the fittings. Something like 1mm instead of 2mm for barbed fittings, so the hole is only 25% the size.

You can still make them up from Hope fittings and hose, but we don't recommend it as they make the brake feel really sluggish.

The Baron isn't far off the Kaiser, hence me recommending it given your requirements

Baron is the best of that lot.

Go for 5 smaller meals instead. Will help you keep topped up and you burn about 40 calories digesting each meal too. How much water are you getting through? 4L+ a day should help with hunger!
