Is this really the best option for a master cylinder?
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sk...dot-80002.html
It's for my 1961 with an auto trans, no power booster and all drums. I guess I want to make sure I'm spending my money on the best option for my set up without moving up to a power booster system. Thanks, Scott |

It's 70 bucks - hard to get killed to bad on that one. Check it out and let us know.

It's more of a statement of performance for my current configuration rather than looking for the cheapest price. Mostly, can you use master cylinders from other, newer years that may perform better? |

Re: Is this really the best option for a master cylinder?
Were you planning on splitting the lines? I'm not familiar with the earlier trucks but I would split the lines if I were rebuilding. I used the 'Corvette' ms/cyl on my '66.

no prop valve needed, you are 4 wheel drums. 67 C10 MANUAL brake master cylinder works nice also. Will post a linky when I can find it - chief rocka has a good thread also.

You can definitely do it for less than I spent on this set-up using factory parts.
