    wont bolt right on, but any master can be made to fit with a little work.

    i did notice a datsun 620 at the yards that had the tiniest booster ive ever seet. it was about 4" around. lol. dunno how much "power" that adds, but its something. lol.

    metro booster will fit
    I have one on my 92
    dont use the metro master though it sucks real bad
    you need to make custom brackets to adapt your stock master to the metro booster

    Yes
    It does not displace as much fluid as the stock master
    What size wheel are you running?

It didnt bolt right up.. i just cut out that section of th fire wall and re built it.. mines bd on 20s and it works ok. but i sugest ordering one of th 7in booster from speedway thats th way ima re do mine.. but i havent had any trouble with th metro, just dont know how well it would work if you had to slam on brakes.

    if you are planning on running a 4 piston setup you are going to need to get a larger master. more pistons more fluid needed. thats why the geo master sux cause it doesnt move much fluid. good luck with the build, brakes suck to piece together.
