Hey again everyone.

I am curious as to what master cyl for the 67-80 corvette will fit the fierostore brake lines that connect it to the proportioning valve.

From all the reading I did It seems that the Napa 39052 is the correct one, however it is $150 compared to a $20 dollar one at a local parts store that is supposed to be for 67-80 vette.

I have almost all my parts for this swap and would appreciate any input, I would rather not create any lines, bad memories of endless months of flaring.

Thank you.

Matthew

The difference with the 3902 is the front and rear holes are the same sized fitting like the Fiero lines while the 10-1749 has different sized fitting that is the only difference but the price tells it all.

I think only NAPA has this part as I have also tried to get i elsewhere with no luck.

I got the master... the fittings are the same like you said, however the holes are reversed, the small is near the front of the car and the larger output is near the cabin.


I thought I have heard many ppl say they found a master that bolts right in with slight bending.. can someone let me know which master that is??

After an hour or so of playing, I managed to bend them properly

I can post a pic if anyone is interested.

I first practiced on the old steel lines then bent the SS ones after, the carbon steel was easier
