Is there an alternative Master Cylinder for a 67 1600?

[111jag]

Everything was working fine until I removed and cleaned all of my brakes, cylinders, and master cylinder. I got the front cylinders resleaved, the rears honed and I have to get a new master. The brake guy said they can't hone the master as it will remove the glaze on them and the brake fluid will eat them up. After spending $760 Cdn on getting the fronts resleaved (yes I live in Canada where everything is expensive and parts unavailable), I was wondering if there was a cheaper alternative Master that I could use and that would fit? I've heard of the 510 but am not sure. Otherwise I have to order again from the states pay the exchange and import duties and heavy taxes and wait forever and it's just killing me.

I feel you man, It took me months to get a firm brake pedal.
I think I remember Gregs672000 saying he got his last one from Rockauto for $15 and he has a '67 so he might be your best bet.

Info in the Tech Wiki under Dual Master alt.
You can save a lot of money by reading in the Tech Wiki.

This option is for the later cars.

If your car is an early 67 with a single reservoir master cylinder, check out the Tilton 74 series. You may have to rebend the metal line.

Do you know Ross at Sports Imports in BC?

Yes it is an early 67 with a single reservoir. Was thinking of switching to the dual but thought it was too big of a job. Your thoughts? Is there anywhere in Canada where they sell Master Cylinders for 67 Datsuns?

Oops, sorry,the dual master is for the later cars. A conversion is not usually done due to the firewall as far as I know.
Others may have more info for you.

This seems to have two outlets? The spec sheet doesn't tell you anything.

Edit: I see the outlet is on the end. Not sure what the two bored holes on top of the cylinder are for unless it is the machining process.

I see there is also a short 75 series cylinder.

Those holes are alternative mounting points.

When I was researching replacement alternatives, I looked at the Wilwood website and it seemed like one of their single cylinders might work,
but I have not personally tried one...Good luck...

Have a look at the picture. I'm from Canada and I went everywhere and couldn't find a 90 degree male/female 3/8"-24 thread. The closest they had was a 28 thread count as shown. It fit about half way but it is not the same. I don't want to bend my brake line and I don't want to make a short little brake line that I can bend. I want a 90 degree as shown in the picture. If you have them in the states can you tell me where. Haven't really searched online. Was wondering if it is ok to have a 90 degree turn at my master cylinder?

Try this.

I called summit and they said they don't have such a part? I thought it was this part:

But the guy said it was not the part I needed. They say they don't have such a part. I'm confused, how do they not make a part that you can make a 3/8"-24 brake line go 90 degrees? Has anybody done what I am trying to do? Go 90 degrees off of my master cylinder using the original brake line?
