Default What master cylinder is this?

I am in the progress of installing my DRM / wilwood brakes on my 1996 Corvette.

The fronts are on, but the rear will have to wait untill I get the right brackets from Randy at DRM.

The brakes dosent feel strogner than before, and I have a spongy pedal. The system has been bleed 3 times now, to make sure ALL air is out..

I also have this new MC that came with the kit. I havent installed yet, partly because the threads on the car and the ones on the MC arent the same, and partly because the rears arent mounted yet...


Anyone know what this MC is...Brand and type?

Think it will make a difference ind brake power and feel?

Note sure what type, but it's a pretty safe bet that it's made by Wilwood

www.wilwood.com

as for the spongy pedal, if the brakes have a larger piston volume, that could be the cause and the need for the different MC

DRM could probably answer your questions if you called them

That master will help your pedal! Please give me a call, or give me your contact info. We have way too many things to get straighten out.

Thanks
