Hi, I went to back my 64 Chevelle out on Saturday and noticed that I had no brakes left. What little fluid was left in the master cylinder had leaked out and it was now empty. Good thing the emergency brake still worked.
Would I be better off replacing the whole master cylinder or should I try a re-build kit? My current master cylinder has the screw on cap while the replacements seem to have the clip that goes over the cover. Which one is correct for a restoration? Napa auto parts lists 2 types of master cylinders. One is for heavy duty brakes w/metalic linings and the other is for non-heavy duty brakes with metalic linings. What is the difference and how can I tell what is on my car? I have 4 wheel drum brakes. Napa also has the power booster for the brakes (87.00) which I would also like to add. It doesn't look like the AC/Delco ones in the Chevelle catalogs that go for about $230.00. What is involved in adding this to the car?
