[Healeys] brake servo for '67 bj8

[Charlie Baldwin]

Another source may be from Volvo 122S station wagons.  Most Volvo people 
just remove them or bypass them when they go bad.  There doesn't seem to 
be much difference in braking effort without them.  I don't have a BJ8 
to compare to, but do a Volvo unit lying out in my garage that I removed 
from my 122S wagon when it kept sucking the brake fluid into the 
engine.  I have a friend that has two warehouses full of old Volvos with 
many wagons, so he may have some lying around too.
If someone would tell me what to measure, I can check it out and also 
take a picture of the one that I have.
