Default Newage Servo on Classic?

Hi does anyone know if a newage brake servo will fit a classic. My pedal is really hard, and just feels un-servo'd. Ididn't want to go for a second hand classic servo as they are all at least 10 years old now.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Ryan.

Hi whats the advantage of that? i'm not getting enough pedal assistance from the servo.
Have you fitted a later type master cylinder?

If you had Brembos fitted you need a bigger master cylinder to move enough fluid...

If your's is just poor, replace the valve in the vacuum pipe first ?

Hi on a classic the valve is in the short rubber hose from the servo before it connects into the steel section. You'll have to sqeeze the pipe to feel it .


Thanks Ryan.
