Whats correct master cyl for manual disc

[pauls340]

I am putting manual disc brakes on my 71 Demon front this winter, what is the correct master cylinder with drums in the rear? Thanks, any pics

Depends on the piston size in the calipers. Without knowing that information it is just a random choice. The brake system is a hydraulic system so piston sizes on both the input and output need to be matched. Otherwise it doesn't work correctly.

I did the swap from manual drum to manual disc Kelsey-Hayes and used the manual disc master cylinder that is correct in application for a 69 Dart. My donor car was a 67 Cuda, and the entire setup was installed on my wifes 66 Cuda. Hope this helps, Geof

when i did my front swap i did not have to change my master. just the porp. valve. it stoped so hard that it broke the plastic peace under the steering coulm.

I have a 67 with the KH 4 piston brakes. When I needed to replace the master cylinder, I did alot of research, and I ended up buying one for a 71-76 Dodge with power brakes. It was a direct bolt in replacement and the manual brakes have never worked better.

Your local parts store will have available the correct master cylinder for that application and that particular car. I have the same setup on my 71 Duster.
