Thanks to all listers who responded to my servo request.

I spoke with another brake specialist who told me that they had sold 
a new, old-stock servo a few months ago, it was returned two weeks 
later having failed. Apparently the rubber grease used during its 
build had attacked the aluminium over the 25 or so years it had sat 
on the shelf rendering it absolutely useless.

This specialist also told me that Lockheed won't honour guarantees if 
you have silicon brake fluid, so that counts me out for using the 
Lockheed replacement. I guess I will have to keep wearing the heavy 
boots to stop the car.
Regards

Ian
