Aluminum master cylinder?

OEM Chrysler applications are popular that have the aluminum body and plastic resevoir.
I have a OEM manual disc/drum application from a late '70's Aspen/Volare on my OEM manual disc/drum Dart Sport. But I was considering doing to a larger truck version if I switch to aftermarket front discs.
I don't have any part #'s handy because I'm at work.

--Lyn -----many of the late model GM cars specifically the corvettes utilize an all aluminum master cylinder and have a metal(steel) cap held in place with the old style snap ring setup--- they are very light only about 5 pounds each--- do not know how much trouble it would be to graft it onto your car tho---probably just hafta fabricate a plate to bolt onto your firewall and then make the appropriate rod to go from the B pedal to the cylinder--- should not be to difficult to do----- Comp 387
