Which master cylinder for a manual front disc/rear drum set up on a '69 Charger?

My 70 had disc-drums on it, and it had just a standard dual master cylinder with the reservoirs the same size

I'm running a Raybestos MC36406. It is a 15/16" master cylinder. It's for a 73-75 A Body. Pressure of the pedal feels good. You should call Dr Diff and talk to him. You can also get it at RockAuto.

A lot depends on the size of your wheel cylinders, with large diameter calipers and rear wheel cylinders the 15/16" MC might run out of travel. On my latest swap with 2.95" calipers and 15/16" rear wheel cylinders I had to go to a 1 1/8" MC to get a decent pedal. (manual brakes)

I am using the 7/8" wheel cylinders. The pedal feels good.

I have factory style front discs and large rear drums. I use 1 1/32 bore on manual brakes. Stops great. Minimal effort required to stop from 125 mph.

I used the stock 68 4 drum master with disc drum set up, works great.

I used 76 Aspen MC on my 70 with 10" rear drum and 11 3/4 disk up front. All steel looks kinda stock. New not rebuilt it was not costly from Rockauto.

I did that initially. Will work fine until the front pistons start to move as thebpads wear. Not enough resevoir for discs.

Thats true, but I know to check my brake fluid level every oil change no matter what master cyl is on a car

Thanks, guys !

I'm trying to figure out my brake set up, and I'd like to stay away from a big, expensive Hemi style brake booster sucking up room under my hood.

I've got the front disc kit that uses '85 Chrysler Fifth Avenue discs and calipers and some 11 inch rear drums and backing plates, or I could go with 10 inch rear drums.

I also need to figure out which junction/proportioning valve/block thingie to use, and what reproduction brake lines will fit.

On mine I used the stock 4 drum valve & lines, non power, I bought an adjustable proportioning valve but did not need it.

The RPV's in the front system are usually problematic. Reservoir size isn't an issue with good maintenance.

no RPV's in mine they are gone.
