Talking out of my arse as usual...a master cylinder! One on ebay which amazed me as did the price...£220 with postage or a repair kit at £20...

ScottieJ got a servo working on his 410, although I can't remember if it was a Vit one or an SJ one.
So you gonna go with the rebuild kit, I take it?

I would guess that he used a 413 servo, its not a straight swap on an early model as the hole pattern is wrong and they swapped studs for bolts (or vice-versa).

Well I might bite the bullet and get a new one...the brakes were crap before the cylinder failed...I'd like them to be like Piglet3...razor sharp!

I used a Vit servo and master cylinder, the one that sits flush against the bulkhead, Enlarge the hole, drill two new bolt holes. Then it fits straight on
