General Discussion / Re: 69 Z28 master cylinder???

« on: April 24, 2008, 07:26:13 PM »

Thanks John, that's what I thought.  Since I've been messing with my MC (which is the tall Bendix style) I've seen SOOOOO many "original" cars with the Bendix MC.  I mean like a hundred.  I'm wondering why so many cars have the wrong MC on them.

A 309 is a Delco Moraine isn't it?  Not a Bendix.  According to CRG the Bendix is not original.  I have the same, am changing to a 309.

Here's another thing for you to check (happened to me!)  Get under the dash and see if something has gotten in the way of the pedal shaft and is preventing it from returning all the way.  It doesn't take very much, just a couple of wires.  On mine, they were between the rubber bumper and the pedal shaft.   If the pedal can't release all the way, pressure gradually builds up each time you press the brakes.  The pressure won't bleed off because the cylinder isn't retracting fully.

... wrong Mastercylinder.

I noticed that too.....because my Pace Car has the same one.

Neat car - what did you find in the internals of your engine?  All 302 goodies or something else?  Original heads do you think?

Japan?  Wow.  Wonder what shipping would cost.  Might be cheaper to bring it home on an airplane......

I would give $14k for that car all day long, especially with that Pace Car interior  .

If the tag is good, I think you scored even with the engine issue.  It looks OK to me, Kurt what do you think?

Thanks Billy.  I don't think there will ever be a chance of finding my original, but it would be fun to have one to show.

There are broach marks, but Kurt would know.

Aren't broach marks straight and parallel to each other?
