Master Cylinder with 1 inch bore??

Do any of the big auto stores (Autozone, etc) have a disc/drum MC with a 1 inch bore that fits 67-72? All the ones I have seen at 1.125 inch bores.

You may have to go to a corvette type master to get one inch, Why do you want to step down in size?

I am piecing together a disc conversion setup for my 65' C10. It currently has a drum/drum MC with a 1 inch bore. So I just wanted to keep the same bore size for my conversion.

ok well disc brake require larger master cylinder due to the larger amount of fluid needed to close the caliper, So I'd use a 1.125 on a half ton truck
