Hello,

I have done the 1800e pedal box to 122 conversion on one my 122s. I did it to be able to have a cable clutch for an M410 and to get the 1800e brake booster and dual circuit brake master.

I would NOT do it again. To able to utilize an M410 or any other manual transmission, I would instead install a hydraulic throw out bearing and keep the stock clutch master cylinder.

To get better brakes, I would do the same conversion you have already done, by modifing an early 140 brake booster bracket to enable the installation of a modern brake booster/dual circuit brake master.
