I backed the '57 out a few weeks ago, stepped on the brakes and it just kept rolling. I decided that it is time to do away with roller bearings, front drum brakes and single master cylinder.
I ordered a disc brake kit and proportioning valve from Speedway Motors. I figured I would buy a master cylinder locally. I am going to go with manual brakes. I was going to buy a 1" bore disc/drum master cylinder from a late 60s, early 70s GM mid size car.
Oreilly's, NAPA and Autozone all list 1" bore drum/drum or a 1 1/8 bore Disc/Drum. Is there such a thing as a 1" bore Disc/drum master cylinder that will fit my car?
I used the search feature here and saw a reply by Rick L to a post with a similar question to mine. He said a early 70s Corvette disc/disc master cylinder would work. If I go with a disc/disc master cylinder, will there be any problem using it on a disc/ drum system?
