I use the Bendix 11584 ( NAPA 39017) Master Cylinder. This MC has a 1 & 5/16" bore and works well with disk brakes. The larger bore gives a nice pedal reserve during a hard stop. This MC does not have a residual pressure valve built in. Your front disk brakes do not require this valve. The rear drum brakes will require a external 10 PSI residual pressure check valve. This MC has two chambers, 1 for the front brakes and 1 for the rear. When updating your brakes, always move up to a dual circuit MC for Safety. This way, if you loose either the front or rear brakes, you always have the other end with brakes. I doubt this MC will be plug and play in place of a stock MC. But with some work, it can be made to fit. There has been lots of discussion on this topic. In the archives search for NAPA 39017.
