Check Brake set up before ordering.
Have been reading plenty of previous posts on master cyl sizes etc, you have some great info here.
Brakes will be front 13" 6 piston wilwood, rear 12.19" and 4 piston. Pretty normal for around here, but the rest is a little differtent, this is for a 69 being converted to Right Hand Drive. (no power assist)
For a RHD set up the master cylinders end up closer to the centre of the firewall than a LHD, so will be using this reverse pedal assembly (6.25:1 ratio) with compact master cyls and send the remote reservoirs back out in the engine bay.

The compact remote master cyls are in these sizes
Remote Master Cylinder - .625" Bore
Remote Master Cylinder - .700" Bore
Remote Master Cylinder - .750" Bore

Have been reading the clutch sizes to suit a TKO Hydraulic throw out assy. .625 or a .700 seems to be OK. thanks andrewb70
For a tandem master most seem to be using a 7/8" (Frank & others)
For a twin master set up it seems to be 3/4" for the fronts and 13/16" for the rear (Matt from Morrisons as an example).
My question is can I use a .750 for both front and rear ? Instead of using a slightly larger master to have less pressure to the rear, would I be able to get this set up OK by the adjustment in the balance bar ?
I could move over to these bigger remote masters to get some better sizes if I have to, but they look about 2" longer than the compact units.

What do you guys think, will .750 for both be OK and reduce enough rear with the balance bar or maybe go .700 front and .750 rear ?
