8v master cyclinder on a 16v

[txrocco at sbcglobal.net (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

so your saying that putting an 8v M/C on a 16v Car is not a bad thing... I
think your logic escapes me.

=>Absolutely incorrect.  The 8v MC produces MORE pressure than the
=>16v.  Additionaly, rear discs do not require a MC swap.  It's the larger
