I have the Wilwood 6 piston (front) and 4 piston (rear) set and was told to use a 1 1/8" bore for non-power, so I bought a late model S10 master, hope it works!!

Use a smaller bore for lighter pedal feel. I have a 7/8 on six piston wilwood fronts and the pedal is still very hard to push.

It was either Wilwood or Precision...pretty sure it was Wilwood though....
Does the stroke have anything to do with it??? (Allan leave that one alone!!)
