Master cylinder diff from 4th gen to 3rd gen????
well im trying to do the hydroboost conversion in my iroc so i found out that the booster that im using is smaller then the back of the mc that goes in teh booster and the back of teh 3rd gen mc needs to be machined to fit in the booster, and i heard that the 4th gen mc has a smaller back and it might fit into the booster...now does anyone have any clue if it is smaller or does anyone have any measurments...anything would help...

Good question...
Why dont you change to a complete booster / master setup from a 98-02 car? Its bolt-on

the 4th gen masters have a smaller piston, but i dont really know if the back of them is any smaller, they have to fit in the same sized hole

A 98-02 mc will bolt directly to the hydroboost w/out any problem.
