Detailed Product Description

This brake master cylinder features a straight bore type with a 1.000 inch (25.4 mm) diameter, designed to provide consistent hydraulic pressure to the braking system. The plastic reservoir is single and removable, allowing for easy maintenance and fluid inspection. The master cylinder includes a cap but does not come with mounting hardware, push rod, brake booster, or bleeder hoses, so these components must be sourced separately if needed. The two mounting holes ensure a secure fit on compatible vehicles.

The primary and secondary outlet ports have inverted flare threads sized 1/2"-20 and 9/16"-18 respectively, matching OEM specifications for proper brake line connection. This part is engineered to fit a variety of Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models including the Century, Cutlass series, Eldorado, Grand Prix, Regal, Riviera, Seville, and Toronado.
