 Post subject: Dual Pot Mastr Cyl ??
PostPosted: Sat Oct 26, 2002 6:17 pm 
What dual pot mastern will replace my 65 Coronet single pot unit? Mine car has man. drum brakes all around. Will the push rods be the same? My brake lines split on a block just below the master cylinder on the subframe..so the tubing part should'nt be a big deal.

Thanks Trysix

Virtually any four bolt unit from a drum brake equipped car will bolt directly in. The push rod is the same too.

Any of the four bolt ones will swap over.
Be sure to grab the metering block and hard lines, that will save you from making-up lines from scratch.

In Tom Condran's "Performance Handling for Classic Mopars" book he says that if you use a power MC on a non Power car, it will require less pressure to work. It has to do with the power MC having a smaller bore and increasing hydraulic leverage.

He cautions NOT to use a disk MC on a drum car or a drum MC on disk cars. But power to non power MC is OK.

Others on the list may be able to give advice on their own practical experience. I just read this in a book and have not used the advice.
