What are my options for a manual master cylinder with front and rear discs?

I used an aluminum master cylinder from a Volare and replaced the proportioning valve with an adjustable one. I made the adapter plate, but you can buy them to convert from the old cast iron to the aluminum ones. I simply cut the rear most 1/2" off the old master cylinder and drilled it for the stud pattern for the aluminum one.

Good info Sam!

I was hoping for an option that was more stock-ish looking. I'll take a look at the aluminum Volare, maybe it'll be more stock-ish than I am imagining.

Mopar Performance is where I bought my adapter plate years ago when I went from power brakes to manual. I'm also using the aluminum master cylinder.

Sandy what other details can you provide about that master cylinder? What car did it come off of or better yet do you have a part number?
