I replaced the stock master cyl. on my 68 Firebird with a new factory replacement designed for a 74 Nova.(disc front, drum rear, manual brakes) The reason I did this is for the bigger 1" bore. I understand that this should be a bolt on deal.
I have factory drums up front and wilwood disc in the rear. The master cyl. was bench bled and installed. The brakes were bled using a vacume bleeder. Everything seemed to go great. I then tested the brakes and had none! Whats up? Should I back up and put the original master cyl. on? Is the stroke different for the Nova master cyl? (meaning do I have to change the pedal rod)
If anyone has made a similar change please give me some help.Thanks
