Yes, I used that bracket and it has worked fine. I used a dual master out of an early 70's malibu or nova I believe. The part number was M1505.

Can you put fluid in it OK? Have to go through some gyrations? Are you using disc/drum?

[JMR5]

I can still get fluid in the master cylinder through the stock hole in the floor. I used a bottle with a little hose on it to make it easier. You can always cut your floor a little and use one of the larger rectangular hinged doors if you want even better access. I'm still running drum/drum and that is what the master cylinder I bought was designed for. If you run disc/drum you'd need to use a diff master than what I used.

sounds good to me. Thanks for taking time to respond.

Or make one for under $10. You can see the mc lid in the right photo. Note I set my seat up so I can tilt it up to get access to the door, if your seat is fixed you might want to locate it on the other side of the floor brace.

I hacksawed the bottom off of the original master cylinder which allowed the use of a 90 degree bracket made from 1/4" plate to bolt to the frame and master cylinder/hydroboost unit. the pedal support pivot is the top half of the old master cylinder. I cleaned it up on the grinder, and it doesn't look half bad. It even has a groove cast into it that the shaft uses for clearance.
Now I have a little place to keep a cash stash! lol
I bought a rebuilt hydroboost at the Good Guys show for $100, an a mastercyl. and hydroboost unit for $60 off craigslist. Now I have a spare for rebuilding.

Yea I know this is an old thread, I just found it.
