Disc Brake Master Cylinders? Billy Nees Help!

impstocker · 06-23-2014, 10:17 AM

I am building a 1965 Impala 396/325 Stocker, all though it is not a "dime rocket" I do have a budget. I am switching to disc up front ( I have stock set-up now but probaly will have a have a Aerospace rotors and calipers-used ) using a stock (cheap) OEM style master cylinder (w 2 reservoirs) like a later 68-69 Impala MC, do I get one for manual drum brakes or one for power disc up front. Any suggestions would be appreciated- I hope Billy Nees could help me with this one!

Thanks -

Advance auto or auto zone carry the the master cylinder Part number 1945. It looks a lot like the wildwood has two cap on it. I think around 25 bucks.

A search of that part number only pulls up a reservoir Phil - Have a full link?

Mid 80's aspen or volare master works well.

I am not very goo at links. But I do have the box still. 13-1945 advance is where I picked it up. I think the 13- will complete the puzzle.

The bore size on that M/C is only 0.83 in... I think that may be under sized for the OP's needs...
