This is not correct... those years of Corvette had around 5 different master cylinders and '63 - early '65 were drum brakes.

| I don't think you can get enough pedal ratio without moving the MC up. I plated my firewall and moved the MC up and moved the pin on the pedal. I still have factory disc up front and drum in rear. I've used 70's GM truck MC and then a Chrysler aluminum MC. No matter what you do be sure to make it so the actuator rod can't fall out if the pedal gets pulled back. The truck MC had a retainer clip so the rod locked in. For the Mopar style I pulled the pedal bracket and mocked it up on the bench and welded in a guide plate for the rod so it stays in place no matter what. The firewalls on these cars are thin so an additional support wouldn't hurt. |
