55 Dual Master Cylinder swap
Anyone ever do a m.cyl swap?
I would like to update my 55s brake system, since I have to replace the wheel cylinders anyways....I think the m.cyl, is under the floor 'cause I dont see it on the firewall.....is there a GM, or other make equivalent, or should I just contact a street rod company for one of there kits????

If power brakes it's under the dash, manual , on the frame. I removed the defrost unit on the firewall and installed a hanging brake pedal assembly from a 55 Chevy than an aluminum mc from a mid 80's dodge similar to the Wilwood mc. I'm setting it up for manual brakes. I've seen other mount a booster/mc on the firewall as well.
No one is going to make a kit to fit a tri-5 Pontiac. Scarebird at one time was interested in doing one , but I havn't heard anything yet. A bracket would have to be made to bolt to the original frame holes to support your master cylinder. It would be a tight fit to put a small booster in that area. I took this pic of ebay:

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
