    284 484 cam and power brakes

    Wouldn't going to a smaller bore provide better brake modulation and feel? I thought power brake master cylinders generally had bores larger than 1" while manual master cylinders had bores less than 1". Smaller bore = more pedal travel for a given hydraulic pressure increase. My thinking...
