| Add that a Post 1976 approx, MGB Lockheed master brake cyclinder can be used on late model Saab 96s with the small filler cap Master cylinder.
Be aware however that the MGB cylinder has an extra hydraulic port, that would need to be plugged off. There is a 4th port, that takes an electric switch, but it is not hydraulic.
Also the MGB master cylinder has M10 x 1 mm threads on the hydraulic ports, whereas the Saab cylinder has 3/8 UNF threads. So either remove the 3/8 UNF ferrules on the Saab pipes, and re-swage, or use cross over.
Plugs and cross over are available on Fleabay.
MGB Master cylinders are easily available from many sources, and pretty cheap, whereas I think the Saab MC is more or less unavailable, as a new part.
