So no safety concerns? Just a change in pedal feel. I'm assuming it will be stiffer?

I have the same setup on my 91, & although its not ideal, it works just fine as long as you don't have rear disk. I plan on swapping it out eventually though for a 93 Cobra booster/mc combo.

At some point I plan on adding rear discs and at that point I will upgrade the booster and master cylinder, but until then I would like to leave well enough alone. Thanks for the feedback guys.

I have the 13' rotors and cobra/bullitt calipers on my car with rear drums. The car stops so good compared to stock, pedal feel is good to me and i wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere!

Depends on your point of view.. but for me I would rather have a good pedel feel if I am going to the trouble of upgrading to cobra brakes. You can throw the brakes on and see how you like it. If it feels like shit then I would change out the MC.
Just my 02 cents ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

Did it, they work, but i'm not happy with the pedal feel. What would be the simplest improved mastercylinder to upgrade with? I don't want to flare fittings or run new lines.
