Hello all

Well,  I was able to remove both master cylinders on my us spec 1973 mgb 
without removing the pedal box.   After removing the rubber bulkhead plug I 
removed the clutch first and brake master cylinder second.   Removing the 
bulkhead plug allows you to push the master cylinders back and then remove them 
up over the front of the pedal box.
