I think you need the Girling version.

TRW do one here https://www.trwaftermarket.com/en/catalogue/product/PMH329/

I paid around £ 350 for mine 6 years ago, but I believe others have since found 
them cheaper.

If you try to fit the long version then you will also need to change the servo 
(black donut disc thing behind it) as the connections are different.

Subject: [Quantum Owners] 2+2 (XR2) Master Brake Cylinder

Hi

Looking for advice on brake master cylinder on our 2+2 based on 1989 Mk2 XR2. 
Fluid is leaking badly from master cylinder so almost no brake pedal! Got it to 
local garage (who I have used for nearly 20 years and trust) who are having 
trouble locating a replacement part. Issue is Ford (bless 'em) changed the 
master cylinder from 1986 when a 'rising servo' and shorter master cylinder was 
fitted. Prior to that it was a longer cast item. The earlier ones are readily 
available but with the rising servo (it points more upwards) there isn't room 
for the longer master cylinder. The only later cylinders we have found are on 
ebay and £350!!

Refurbishment kits are available for about £15 which may fix our existing 
cylinder but it is not clear whether there are separate kits for the early and 
later cylinders

So, does anyone

a) know of a source of the later master brake cylinders at a more sensible price
b) know if there is more than 1 refurbishment kit and how to tell which is which
c) know of another master cylinder which would fit with minimal additional 
effort

Many thanks

Sonia & Pete
