Stock master works perfect with stock brakes.
The advantage of the later pedal box is a separate brake and clutch
master where if you loose fluid in a leaky clutch slave, you still have
brakes.
With the stock master, if you have a leak anywhere, you have no brakes
and no clutch.
The later box needs sheetmetal mods to fit, it is not a direct bolt in
replacement.
