Default Master Cylinder bore size
I looked using search but could not find anything. I am looking to purchase the Wilwood 260-8556P and wanted to make sure that I buy the correct bore size. I looked in Ecklers and they have 1" and 1" 1/8.

Which size is for a 76... or is there and easy way to find out what size I have.

Thanks in advance.

1" bore is for manual brakes and 1 1/8" is for power brakes.

Thanks guys!!!

Nick, may I ask if you had to use the spacer inside the channel? Hard to install or adjust?

Looking to install a hydroboost and trying to cover all the bases.

Later.
