The disc portion of a master cylinder will move a lot higher  volume of
fluid when you step on the brake.  Compare the size of a wheel cylinder to a
caliper.  The caliper needs  a lot more volume to work properly..
   I don't know what problems you would have with a disc/drum M/C on a
drum/drum vehicle.  But I'd bet that the front wheels would lockup way too
soon..

Hi Everybody,

I have a rebuilt master cylinder and booster, which I was told is for a
disc/drum combination. I have a 1970 GMC truck with non-power MC and drums
all around.

Can I install this MC/booster setup on my truck? If not, can somebody
explain to me what the differences are between a drum/drum MC and a
disc/drum MC?

Thanks!
Larry Shouse
