? about master cylinder, please help This master cylinder comes from a 00' Firehawk. It looks exactly like the one on my 98 Z28 can I use this one on my Camaro? I also want to know will I have a problem removing my master cylinder and replacing it with this one? Is it difficult to change the master cylinder? Can I just replace my master cylinder fluid container, with this one? My master cylinder fluid container has a leak at the threads and I would like to replace it with this used one. Help - thanks in advance. One more question, are all LS1 master cylinders interchangeable within the 98-02 model years? Thanks.

Ok, how about just anwering if the remove and install of the master cylinder is fairly easy? I know I will problably have to take it to the dealership to get the brakes bleed at all four corners.

If just the plastic bottle is leaking, you can just replace that. Just pull hard and it will unseat. It's just held in by the rubber grommets.
