Title: Looking for advice - power disc brakes for 1970 HEMI clone
Post by: Cuda_mark on June 29, 2018, 11:25:22 AM
I'm at the point where I need to purchase a master cylinder and booster. It doesn't need to be original but I want it to look the part. Does anyone have any advice on where to get a clone set up?

I don't like using power boosters on a Hemi, even the original Hemi setup takes up room. I used this master cylinder on my last two cars and it worked great. It says it is okay for power or non power applications.

Used the Dr. Diff parts on a 69 Hemi Charger we just did here in the shop, fit great.

I would call Cass and www.doctordiff.com.  He has the best knowledge and will only sell you what you need. I have his stuff on my '68 Charger and love it!  Be very careful of any other aftermarket brakes, many are just for looks and do not perform or fit as good as the basic Mopar equipment.

Just don't use one of those jelly bean shaped GM master cylinders on your Mopar like many do....  :stop:
