How about -16 top and -20 lower? Seems most factory radiators always had larger lower hoses anyway right?

Now I'm wondering, so I get a set of matching fronts.....

Did you mean TXsilverado?

It was not direct bolt in, it's the Jegs one for our cars. I had to slot it to get it to fit over the factory studs. Based one me asking on FB, this is typical.

But, but, but, I don't know if there is a direct fit manual master for drag brakes. Maybe Wilwood?

I had to do the same thing to my Strange master. Same basic design. When I was looking for a "factory" cheaper alternative the 1977 Volare looked identical. Not sure of the bore size though.

I had a Strange, was not direct fit, got a Jegs, and they looked identical so I returned the Strange one. The Jegs kit came with an adapter plate that I didn't use.

I put up wall insulation this weekend, anything to help keep the garage a usable space during our winter.

Was your car a manual master cyc before? Just curious if you need to a support for the master cycle to keep from firewall flex.
I know with my car i had to and it made a world of difference in pedal fell. I also have did a cowl delete tho. Just curious

Heheh. Big tires have really grown on me.

This weekend is kinda shot with kid's hockey stuff, but we are going to finish up the BS I can do at the house REALLY SOON. My buddy and I might block out a few days next week. I might take some time OFF.
