Dual disc master cylinder

Howdy guys,

Looking into a pair of AP Racing CP 2696 calipers for my daily driver... How do I determine what master cylinder I need? Currently, I am running the 1/2" single disc MC, obviously I'd need to get a 5/8" MC - is there any way to determine exactly what bore size and fluid displacement MC I need?

How many of you have bored out the 1/2" MC? I like the vintage look of the round MCs and would really like to keep it. Yes, I'm aware of the bored and beaded one on ebay now, but I don't like the bead blasted look and would probably want to have it bored myself. Maybe - a nice powdercoat would be just as good too.

Here's a schematic of the calipers , I can't tell if there's a MC bore size listed or not.


Thanks,
Mark
