The master cylinder has four outlets, two on each side. I only need two of the four outlets, one for front disc brakes and one for drum rear brakes. Can I plug the two outlets on the side toward the frame and use the two that are exposed? What do you think? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy Rick in VA, it sounds like you have a universal type master cylinder, probably purchased from an aftermarket supplier. The instructions that came with it should confirm, but I think you should be able to use whichever ports are the most convenient, and plug the unused ones, hope that helps | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 | There are ports on each side of the MC so you can choose. Just make sure you use a front and rear port and not both fronts or both rears. I know that may sound dumb, but dumber things have happened before. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 222 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 222 | Hi Lonnie, I knew better but it never hurts to say!

I am looking for a company I can buy a stock master cylinder for my 1957 Chevy 3100 1/2ton truck. Is it still possible to buy one made in the USA? I see prices from $70 on up to almost $200. Thank you!
