Which brake master cyl? 12mm v. 3/8” switch?
Hi everyone. Appears I have a leak at the brake master cylinder so I’m preparing to replace it. Rock Auto lists 2 MCs for the 94 ZR-1: one with a 12mm long switch, the other with a 3/8” long switch. Is this referring to the pressure differential switch, and how do I know which one my car has?

What casting information is on your master cylinder? You might need a mirror to read it. |

I replaced my master and the reservoir in October 2016 and did not run into part number/compatibility issue you are having.
Below is the vendor I got my parts from and had no issue. Perhaps part number listed can help you with cross-referencing. https://corvetteparts.com/catalog?q=...aster+cylinder |

There are four listed for your car on RA. Only one is noted as 3/8’s. It’s aftermarket. The Ac/Delco unit is 12mm, go with that.

Good advice, so it’s done. I’ll update if any problems but don’t anticipate them. Ty all.
