Hydroboost question
I am thinking about finally getting around to installing a hydroboost on my truck. I have the "boost" part and need a master cylinder. Some reading I found lead me to one off a 99 Tahoe which is where I think my parts came from. They have a diesel or the police package with the hydroboost.
The bore on this cylinder is 1.25 inches diameter instead of the 1.125 as I believe is standard. I wanted to get to the new style master cylinder with the aluminum body and plastic reservoir as mine seem to always end up leaking and looking ugly. I currently have Wilwood D52 calipers on the front with stock drums on the back. Do you think this master cylinder is a good option? I thought the larger diameter would be better than the smaller diameter since I will have more boost. I know there are options for 7/8 1 and 1 1/8 bore. If not this cylinder what would you suggest? Also which on these cylinders is the front system and which is the rear brake system?
