Anybody using aluminum m/c?

Has anybody here used any of the newer aluminum brake master cylinders? I am using stock 1/2 2wd brake components but I do not want to use stock power brake boosters. I even tried one of a 3/4 ton with a dual diaphragm but it will not clear my offenhouser breathers on the valve covers on my 402. And I do not like the way the booster looks on the firewall. I had Napa look up the bore size and both the full sized truck '88 and newer and the s10 are using step sized bores, the smaller bore is about the same size as stock but the other bore is 1/4" larger. I am worried that this will cause uneven brake pressure from front to back. Any input would be great.
