As for the master cylinder, that would depend on what rear brakes you're running. Factory disc brake from what? Super Duty? Or should we assume LT1 or LS1 F-body, C5, C6, etc? All of the latter are fairly comparable hydraulically speaking with 45mm pistons, so we would normally suggest a 7/8" to 15/16" bore master cylinder with a slightly more aggressive pad in a manual installation.

Hey Tobin, i just purchased 3rd gen f body hubs from you about a month ago. It's an 82 z28. The car has a 9 bolt rear end with the pbr calipers i believe it is an 11 inch rotor.
Unless wilwood makes a master that will bolt up to my firewall/pedals which was originally vacuum assist, then yes i will need some sort of adapter.
