Master Cylinder

Doing a front brake swap on my 68 C10, and want to use a manual master. Anybody have any recommendations or links to a disc/drum master that would work for my application?eei

Re: Master Cylinder

IIRC, when disc brakes came out in '71 they were manual on the C/10s, and the booster was optional. I don't remember part numbers, but someone should chime in soon with a good part number for a manual master. It's been discussed at quite some length, but I'm drawing a blank.

Re: Master Cylinder

If I'm not mistaken, the only difference between the power and non-power mc in 71-72 C10s (since all are disk/drum mc's) is the depth of the hole inside the back of the primary piston (i.e. where the pedal push rod engages). I believe the power mc has a very shallow hole and the non-power mc has a deeper hole.
