Default Re: Master cylinder conversion

I've done two brake systems over the past few years. Have done many hydrolic conversions in the past. I came to the conclusion that just adding a hydrolic cylinder doesn't improve the braking of the car. Using the 39-48 system doesn't improve the braking of the vehicle, it only makes it easier to push on the pedal. Many guys will tell you the old rod/cable systems worked just as well, when in good condition. With hi-way speeds of today you should consider up grading to disks in the front and save the old systems for parades.
