Heh everyone i got a question can the LS1 master cylinder work with a 3rd gen booster also what prop valve do you guys use with it. I have a 89+ prop valve and was wondering if that will work

Re: LS1 master cylinder

It will work but the lines from the master to the booster need a little tweaking.
A 1le valve or 88 amd later disc/disc valve should be fine.

I had cut off the mounting bracket to the prop valve. It made tweaking the lines much easier

Mine went on with minor tweaking. Been that way for 4+ years now. I also have a 91 prop valve.
