MC Options

What are the various options for MC that will bolt to the stock locations?
With or without power assist.

Thanks guys! I'd be banging my head a lot more if it wasn't for this site.

I bought a 1987 911 master cylinder and it bolts right onto the front frame head just like the VW one. Only problem is that the 911 M/C doesn't have threads so you will have to use nuts and bolts or heli-coil the M/C to give it some threads. Oh yea you will have to shorten the push rod or lenghen it I can't remember at the moment...

The chassis is still sitting on jackstands. The suspension and brakes should go on for the last time in the coming week sometime. So no I haven't used it yet. Alot of people have used the 944 M/C but I have not so I can't comment on how easy or hard the swap is.
