Hi all
I use a Chrysler Corp. dual iron master cylinder (4-bolt) together with a modern servo.
I use the the lower model without oil level glass
I think it is for a Dart -68
Partnumber (Identification number) is MC 36221 (United Brake System or Raybestos), maybe this number
is valid for other suppliers
I
Search the number on internet

I even use this master cylinder in my Studebaker coupe -55 ( converted with modern brake pedal to)

Our earlier cars, Imperial 59, Dodge 59 works great with this master cylinder

Right know I convert our Dodge 880 Custom 62 with a dual brake system.

Comments?

Dave has given you correct information Chris. That's why cars with power brakes "usually" have a larger bore MC. Personally I would stick with the 4 bolt iron MC which is a direct bolt on. The newer 2 bolt style will require an adaptor. If you have power brakes now then just ask for a 67 Chrysler MC with Power drum brakes. If you have manual brakes then ask for a 67 Chrysler MC with manual drum brakes.

Dan

PS I would also ask for a brand new MC. I've not had good luck with rebuilt MC's.

Pressure = Force / Area
A larger bore means more area, so less hydraulic pressure in the system from the froce of your foot. A bigger bore also means more fluid displaced for a given amount of pedal travel.

In simple terms: a bigger bore master cylinder means you will have a stiffer pedal, but will require more pedal effort than a smaller bore to get the same braking.

I am replacing the single pot master in my '65 300L with a dual for drum brakes. Is bigger better as far as bore size? What about power vs. manual? Should I swap to a newer style aluminum or stick with the iron 4 bolt?

Thanks you guys have always been a fountain of knowledge,
