Which port

[vand]

A friend of mine isn't sure which ports to use on the master cylinder of his drum drum project. He is using a 65 Ford drum drum master cylinder. Front bowl to front or rear. I think the drum drum cylinder has a built in residual valve. Right or wrong? any help greatly appreciated.

Big port to the disk brakes. The fluid doesn't return as the pad wares.

If I understand right this is 4 wheel drums.

No disc brakes, drums on all four corners. Both reservoirs are the same size. Master cylinder is from a 65 Maverick with all drum brakes.

I would think that it dosn't matter. All things being equil, all things are the same.

In the stock installation the resavor closest to push rod goes to rear the other to front.

Sounds like you have a master for disk/drum. Not sere how that will work with all drums. Better get another m/c.
