    I don't know if you have seen it hotrod but Mavdog71 has a booster and master cylinder all in one that fits our cars and fits between the firewall and the shock tower without turning it sideways or grinding anything, and looks very nice. I called the Co. and they priced it at $275, Mavdog is supposed to talk to them and give me the exact set up so I get it right the first time. They custom build these and they had to make a change on his that I want to be done the first time when I order. I don't have the phone # here at work but I will get it to you if you want it.

    The booster and master cylinder is for a '89-'94 Geo Metro, I believe. Like Ward said, there are companys that make kits based on the Geo design that use other master cylinders. Comes down to what you want to spend I guess.

    I was at Ward's Friday helping him work on 3 of his mavericks (what fun that was) and we talked about it...I am ordering one for the yellow car.
    Have a friend working on an "almost" bolt-on rear disc (cheap) once it is all complete, it should make for a nice stopping vehicle.
