Dimitris, do you have an Australian place that ships to the US that you would recommend?

repost the question with a 'help from OZ members" They will know what you can replace it with. It looks like a single chamber m/c and I'd go with the bean can S style m/c. It's resevoir is a bit taller.
When you put discs on, you'll want a new m/c. Also, I'd order new rubber hoses for all 4 wheels, and new wheel cylinders for the rear. No point in upgrading brakes and leaving some 20+ year old bits in the mix that might let you down when you Must STOP.
And when you get a chance, or if you have the bucks, replace the clutch master too. Same age as the brake m/c. Bound for failure. While you're messing with brake fluid, do both.

That is my problem! Will I need to buy a different one if I swap to disc brakes?

Well don't I feel stupid. Anyways, here is what my Mini has. It appears the clutch and the brake masters are the same.

when you hit reply click on the drag and drop box upper left and just insert photo, this is one of the easiest sites I use to post photo's!
Mini's are like buses they come along in a bunch

a picture will make the job easy for the 'crew' here to ID your m/c.

I have a 1970 Morris Mini Panel Van from New Zealand and my brake cylinder is leaking just slightly enough to keep the pedal from firming up while bleeding it. I have bled the system correctly, but cannot get the pedal to not go to the floor every time. It makes it a huge pain to stop. The main problem is that I can't find the master cylinder that I currently have anywhere online. The only word on the thing is "Lockheed" and I am hoping someone out there can help.
So, I need help identifying the master cylinder and I need to know if I convert my mini to disc brakes if I would just have to get a new master cylinder anyways. Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated!
I have pictures, but can't figure out how to post them on here.
