FYI in my opinion the 1 1/8" is way to much for a hydraulic throw out, a GM one anyway! The pedal is to heavy and quick! It's damn near an on/off switch! I'm really thinking about going with the setup I linked above and rebuild the 7/8” master cylinder I was using before! I may also go with a little smaller diameter on the brake master cylinder as well. The brakes are also pretty dang heavy!
Right, so if you want easier to push brakes you need to go smaller on the master or bigger on the calipers....I believe changing the master should be easier, especially if you have two masters and a balance bar. If you change the front brake calipers you should change the rear as well, assuming the balance is good now.
