Am using power brake booster, and 4 wheel disks, so this may or may not apply. Manual disk/drum may need different MC.

Master cylinder is Ford part# D9AZ-2140-A. It came with the M-2300-C rear disk brake conversion kit from FMS. It brings the brake lines out on the engine side for easier connection and service than the Vette MC. Since the kit is an adaptation from the '87 - '89 T-bird turbo coupe, the MC is likely the OEM for that car.

But if you are looking for an option to the Vette MC for 4 wheel power disks, a bolt on for the MII booster, is aluminum, not iron, and installs easier; look into it.

Just upgraded my rear pads to semi-metallic courtesy of Stainless Steel Brakes (Earl Ruleman), and car does stop well.
