what are your putting this into ?.. for most 60's and 70's GM cars. the 4th Gen F-Body OEM master with a adpater plate can be used (which is what I am using).

But it all depends on what car your working with ?

I got a complete package out of a '04 GTO and used the master cylinder from that w/ a home made adapter for my Toyota pickup. Also had to swap the push-rod that connects to the pedal... works great and feels natural.

I used a wilwood 7/8 master. Its great and very compact. Make sure you have a good pedal/arm ratio when doing this. The higher the rod is attached to your clutch pedal the more leverage.
