That's the goal for my T/A. Retro look with modern convenience so I can drive it a bunch. It'll be a sort of modern restoration. There should be a term for that...

Morning Ben, Robert, Lisa, Tiki and the rest of youins
Opened the door to let da Bear out and a good gust of wind was blowing pollen, looks like fog it's so windy. Probably not a good sign to start the day. Overdid it yesterday and hands are starting. Probably find something inside to do. Have a good day everyone, remember chew your pollen air before breathing in |

Caption should be "over 60", that's how I feel every morning.
So anyway, I got this nice, shiny, chrome master cylinder a few days ago, "guaranteed to fit" your 1976 Corvette. Nice enough to work in the garage (50 degrees). I bench bled it. Took the new-old steel MC off. Measured the throat of the New MC. then measured the push rod distance. CRAP, push rod is 1.312" too long for new MC Only 3/8" adjustment in the push rod either direction. Returned to seller with a nasty note "It does not fit MY 1976 Corvette!" Explained the difference in throat depths (.5" on chrome unit, versus 1.812" on standard OEM unit). I believe this chrome unit is meant for a Bendix type booster. I don't have a Bendix type booster. Ordered a new, shiny, chrome, replacement Master cylinder and Booster from Zip Corvette. Same physical size as OEM. Will be here next week sometime. I'm gonna order up a few of those band aides. Getting the old booster out will not be fun (I can only see 3 of the 4 mounting bolts inside by the pedals, and the 3 visible bolts are damn near impossible to get at) Probably will need to take the seat and console out to get at it Sorry @C3C7NIC I'd like to help you out with your '68, but I'm just not limber enough anymore for these gymnastics. |

You might want to check with C3C7NIC and see if she can special order some of those bandaids. I have Bluey and Toy Story bandaids.
