Default Brakeforce transfer bar.

Hi. I am working on a LHD P1800 and have no room for a vacuum servo on the drivers side.
My plan is to move the servo and master cylinder to the right side and put the transfer bar/pipe inside the car (so i can place the servo further back).

My question is about the bar you guys have on your RHD cars.
I need pictures on the brackets and the diameter, and if possible thickness of the pipe (or if it is solid).

If you can help me with this i would be very gratefull.

I try to ad some pics.

Why not use a remote servo and leave master cylinder where it is?

Post Brakeforce transfer bar.

Find attached pics
The small brackets that are bolted with two bolts are 70mm tall
I think the tube is hollow from what I see and welded at each end to connecting rods to the bracket.

Just a thought if you have the old bar you could, by the looks of it, just turn it over to get the two arms that connect to the servo and brake pedal (the Servo arm is bigger than the brake side.

I am installing a crossflow engine that is why space is limited on the left side.

And the mastercylinder is a dual output so it is longer than the stock one.

Thank you for the detailed pictures, that is just what i need.

I live in Sweden so i have never seen a RHD P1800 in reel life. And i do not have the bar so i have to produce my own, but that is ok because i am going to put it inside the car so it is custom anyway.

I have a very limited vocabulary so bear with me when i am writing. I have problems understand what i wrote to
