3rd gen line lock with a 4th gen master - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

The title says most of the question. I am in the midst of a rebuild/LS1 swap and to clean the engine compartment up a little I would like to use a 4th gen master cylinder. I already have the SLP line lock, I would like to know if I the fittings will thread in correctly.

any advantages with useing the ls1 master over the factory third gen?

Prettier, easier and less of a mess to fill.

They're a LOT more expensive from the parts house though. I mean, the factory one is like $23. The 4th gen one is like $160.

Also, if you convert over to a hydraboost setup, you'd need a 4th gen MC or to machine down the thirdgen one. Looks cleaner with a 4th.

Oh, and it's one of the few master cylinders with the exits on the passenger side of the MC, rather than the driver's side, which would be too close to our shock tower. A while ago someone told me of another one that exited on the side to swap to, but I've forgotten it.
