Re: Master cylinder

Instead of relying on someone’s suggestion you should do some calculations.

Re: Master cylinder

I'd start with the master that matches your Corvette front brakes year since that's where 70%+ of your braking is going to come from

Since you are mixing and matching brake systems, I'd put an adjustable proportioning valve on the rear brakes and play with it until the rears lock up just before the fronts

Re: Master cylinder

Since this is more of a general question, it's being moved to the suspension area.
