Stewart Woollard Posted May 1, 2020 Report Posted May 1, 2020 Hi, I am building a 1926 Ford Roadster hot rod. I am using a 251 engine mated to T5 transmission. I like that the truck bellhousing has the mounts for both the pedals and the M/C. The bore of the M/C that came with the bellhousing is 1 1/4". I am using early Ford drum brakes and need a smaller bore, 1 1/16". So my question is there a Mopar M/C with a bore of 1 1/16" with the same bolt pattern as my truck bellhousing? A picture of my project. Cheers, Stewart. Quote
Tooljunkie Posted May 1, 2020 Report Posted May 1, 2020 perhaps you read it, maybe you didnt. Fine examples of the various master cylinders adapted to the bellhousing. find a suitable master cylinder and adapt. Quote
Jj1981 Posted May 2, 2020 Report Posted May 2, 2020 Make an adapter plate with countersunk studs to allow u to bolt up what ever master you want Quote

The car will not run with a hood. The M/C will be in plain sight, so I want it era correct. The obvious answer it use the Ford M/C that was used with the '40s Ford brakes I'm using. I just wondered if Mopar used the same style M/C, but with a smaller bore. Quote

I wanted to know if Mopar had the same style M/C with a smaller bore, as I would use that if they did. Quote
