Brake master cylinder difference
Need to replace the brake master cylinder on my 89 due to leaking(at booster)
I had initially planned to hone out and insert a stainless steel sleeve and put in a kit.
I know 86 and 87 are the same,The 88 is a one off, 89 to 91 is the same but what confuses me is that I currently have two resivours on mine,however some sellers are selling master cylinders that have only one fluid resivour with a connector tube to the front inlet and state that these suit the 89
what is the difference?

The current Mid America catologue shows the 89-91 AC Delco master cylinder as having only one reservoir,which is what the 86-87 looks like
I'm confused now on what I can use as a replacement..Any suggestion's?

Bit like DBA vented Rotors,I thought it stood for "Disc Brake Australia",come with patented Kangaroo paw vents and saw them advertised in the U.S.Umm I thought,DBA ? Kangaroo paw technology?must be a sets from Australia.Contacted DBA Australia,who said They dont make them for the vette's,they are made by their subsiduary group in the U.S. ..you guessed it DBA"Disc Brakes America"
