I'm planning on upgrading the front brakes at the same time of this conversion. This prob won't get done till the middle of May or so. I want to get the SC up and running, and all the other parts on first. There is so much stuff here, it will prob take about a month to get it all on.
Cry me a river.....

to answer, you may want to ask steve but i think the masters are the same on all models ex. the svt you should be fine with the stock master, the conversion may come with larger diam. line and hose to make up for the volume.

I'd like to know if they are the same
My black box needs new front brakes, I am to the point of if I should try new aftermarket pad/rotors or try an svt swap. I want the bitch to stop right meow.

if you want better stopping, try some steel lines up front with a good set of pads i think the rears only keep the focus straight in hard braking, for examp. the super car of doom has 88 thou on the original rear shoes.... !!!!!update!!!!!!! im looking for a doner mustang ive set my mind on the you know what swap. i figure after selling all the crap i dont need it will cost about 3,000 dollars, and mustangs are like dirt down here, all over and almost free. but i will have to upgrade to svt brakes up front.. another thing you can try is that bat.org big brake covr. for like 500.00 bucks you get a 2 piston caliper and 300 mm rotors alls you need is a sawzall and a drill.

If you buy a fox body mustang, try to find a notch back with a decent body and interior, you can take the motor/trans/rear and everything else, I just want a rolling chasis with a complete interior. You can take the computer and wire harness too.
If you find a car worthy, I could come up with some cash, I got a truck, and, I can get a trailor.

the cars down here dont rott, there is a huge untapped resorrse for bodeis down here. it seems that mustangs and camaros are big, but nothing like the imports and low riders. if i had the money and the time , i could see a business opportunity here transporting good cars from here to up north.
