so, i got some helpful tips and hints on the previous brake question post,
but the main question is still unanswered .... - what exactly is the difference between the early (pre '78) 911 MC and the later model ('78 and onward) MC ??? also, anyone out there who runs mid '80s carrera brakes all around and got the brakes balanced OK? if so, what MC are you using? what else did you have to do to get it balanced? sooo many questions ...

I'm not sure how relevant it is because the 911's went to boosted brakes about 1977. The cars with "S" calipers got 20mm masters as early as 1969. So as brakes got bigger, master cylinders followed suit and the forces required increased as well. People complained about the forces required, and we got boosted brakes as a result. I have only seen one 914 with a boost MC setup.
