Re: Brakes/Dual Master Cylinder/rename



No dumb questions.........
How a dual master cylinder works.........
You have 2 chambers in a dual cylinder and 1 in a single. The first chamber (one closest to the fire wall) is fluid for the front brakes. The second chamber is the fluid for the rear brakes. If you are using your original drum brakes, both front and rear, you don't need a proportional valve. Follow the line coming out of the master cylinder to the splitter box. You will have to do some plumbing in this area. A 1967 master cylinder, first year Federally mandated for dual cylinder, for your model vehicle should bolt right on to your existing booster. You can buy brake line at any parts store, and a flaring kit from Harbor Freight. A simple one day project.

Does the booster in the bottom picture on the web page below look like your car's booster?

 So, dumb question... do I need the booster from that master cylinder,
 or will mine work? If I need the booster, is it because the shape of
 the MS is so different, or is it because of the boost rate, or what?
 That last question is just to feed my own curiosity about the hows and
 whys things work. I'm always curious... :)
