Here is a picture of the master cylinder I had laying around. I don't know how this compares to stock.

That looks more like a stock Fiero one, just a dimple. The MC with the hole is supposed to have the same size line fittings, thus why he chose that year of one.
Im not the one doing the swap, I just wanted to add info to the thread.

Archie installed an '82 Corvette BMC into my 87GT ... I thought it was a direct swap but you may want to check with him for details...

Wow, Still alive! I'll have to update the first post when I get a chance.

Funny you bumped this now... I have just been reading through it, as I decided about 2 weeks ago, I am bringing the Fiero back to life and doing the brake conversion to make it happen.

Going with C4 Calipers and 12 rotors in the rear and C6 calipers and 13 inch up front

Glad to see this thread lives. I am in the process of finishing up the 4.9 install and have been reading on this upgrade. I probably jumped right by it, but is there a pic for the adaptors to mount brackets. Or does someone still sell them?

Fellas,
Iā€™m doing this upgrade. Can you purchase a caliper with the CORVETTE inscribed on it? For that matter, what about BREMBO, or BEAR or perhaps another manufacturer?
Good write up...šŸ˜‹
Cordially,
kevin

Sorry I still haven't updated with more in-depth details from when this first started. I'm working on another one of these brake swaps now though, and so I made a jig for the rotor drilling. I posted the link in my first page post, but here it is also.
