I seem to recall that it was a calendar year thing. Jan. 1, 1968 brought a bunch of new safety and emission regulations. I'm not sure that dual circuit brakes were one of them at that time. I have a

I am not sure I understand this. Does the XKE have two brake master cylinders, one for each reservoir? Or only one master cylinder & two reservoirs? If two master cylinders, is one for the front brak

I'm thinking that it must have happened for Jan.1, 1970. I have a 1970 Volvo 1800 that does have dual circuit brakes, but Volvo would sometimes do things before it was mandated. I'll have to check th

It is kind of weird to me. One of the reservoirs goes to the master cylinder and one goes to the booster. Any of you XKE experts feel free to chime in. There is definitely only one brake line that go

Dunno about E-types, but aren't most 'dual circuit' systems split? IOW, they are not completely redundant, but have separate lines--driven by separate M/Cs or chambers--to either front/rear, or side-

The change to dual circuit brakes took place with the 1968 model year. Don't believe me? Go look at the Moss catalog. MGB tells the story The listing are: MGB Single line system 1962-1967 MGB Dual l

As far as I can tell, the XKE has a front brake master cylinder & a rear brake master cylinder. I am not aware of any brake system with two lines going to a single caliper. The XKE has an unusual (to
