You never know, you may get lucky! But that is certainly one approach, it just may cost more. Tilton has at LEAST seven different sizes available that I know of.

Some tips on the approach you are taking.

Take the time to adjust your balance using the balance bar. Then, if the balance bar needs to be set to far off center, change a master cylinder size to get it centered. Which one you change depends on other things. For instance, if you can not lock all four tires no matter how hard you push or you feel the peddle effort is to high, make the master cylinder that the balance bar is adjusted towards smaller. If the reverse is true make the opposite one larger.

I didn't even ask you everything I need to know to reduce the margin of error! I would also need items such as center of gravity height, aero dynamic loads, etc. But, I make some reasonable assumptions and they work fairly well.

Be sure you don't have the residual presure valve in teh rear line for the drums. I could be hidden in the proportioning valve, etc if you have one in the system.
