I fitted mine rear cylinders in the same orientation as those on Morris Minors, my levers point downwards.

Whilst you can rotate the bleed nipple screw in any position, inside the cylinder, the in/out of fluid share the same drilling and to improve the purge of air, this should be uppermost, which is with the lever down, the other way, there may always be a bubble difficult to shift during the bleeding operation.

Once all the air is evacuated it shouldn't matter, but Morris Minor brakes are notorious for being bled due to trapped air and anything that makes this easier is my preference.

Stephen, the "bolt - banjo" that the pipe screws into and which goes through the banjo to screw into the cylinder has a shoulder that locates in the banjo and is bigger than the threaded bit that sticks out of the banjo so 2 different size washers . Larger is7/16 inch and smaller that goes between banjo and cylinder is 3/8 inch........that is internal diameters.

Hi Dennis,
I definitely didn't know that so will have to make a note.
Thanks,
