Hey hey, upgrading brakes on my volvo as part of a ford stud pattern/explorer diff conversion
Is anyone aware of a 1" bore master that will bolt to the volvo booster, or near bolt on?
Thanks!

Some details on turbo bricks
Ford mustang master cylinder with geo metro booster and some huge set of audi/vw brakes
The ford mc was a 1"
1" btw is effing huge unless your running 336mm+ rotor with huge calipers

Will likely use hilux/landcruiser 4 pots, skyline 4 pots or rx7 4 pots. I think all have 1" masters

The rx7 brakes have an adaptor available already from Dvs, they use the stock master cylinder but the bigger 740 discs.

the only car ive seen with the need for a master cylinder upgrade is a mates polo gti.
went from the factory brakes to Porsche Cayenne gts calipers. (as per a kit made for the golf and the polo platforms)
it took two pumps for the brakes to get working really well. so i suggested to get a master cylinder upgrade or if there was an off the shelf MC for them (guarantee there is)
so i doubt that if you were not increasing your caliper piston by 4x like the polo did, and not feeling significant spongy pedal feel, that you would really need it?

Look at Tilton stuff. They make 1 inch borrow M/cyl with different mounts.i use a Tilton pedal box and M/cyls in my 142
