1994/1995 gt brake booster, it was smaller diameter, and fit better with the
358w under the hood.

1.00" Bore.

Either the 1993 Cobra MC, or since you hbave the pre-87 brake setup with the 2-port MC already, you can use a 1985 Lincoln Town car 1" Bore MC.


If you want a little more braking response and sensitivity, you can go with the 1994-1995 Cobra 15/16" bore MC, but it will require brake line adapters to fit the lines you have now. (i beleive the '93 cobra MC will as well)
