harrison Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Just got my 65 410 today and the master clutch cylinder is shot, no pressure at all in the pedal. and seeing as how finding a replacement is near impossible, is there a substitute that would work well.. ie. 510, roadster or 240z master clutch cylinders? my slave cylinder is fine, and i ordered one off ebay as a spare already. also I have the square carb air filter on mine, anyone know a part number for auto zone/advance auto parts? thank you Quote Link to comment
erichwaslike Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 A 510 master should work.have a 74 on my 67. U just have to make a short extension to the pedal as the rod is slightly shorter. Hope this helps Erich Quote Link to comment

JH Bahn Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Datsun 411 Master Cylinder Datsun 620 Conversion cole@davidwarrengallery.com I bought a new Datsun 620 dual master cylinder off eBay for $30 plus $9 shipping to Maui. I was getting a bit paranoid about the stock master cylinder after several different people warned me of the (I thought unlikely) dangers associated with single master cylinders. I have never had one fail on me and I have owned lots of old cars. But I did this conversion anyway. The only tricky part was modifying the stock plunger rod. I removed it from the old master cylinder, rounded the ball end and cut it in half. Then I found a die that would fit and threaded both sides. Once that was done I used two nuts and one of those really long nut things to enable me to install the mc and adjust the length of the rod. It worked great and was practically free! The master cylinder bolted right up to the stock mounting holes and didn't get in anything else’s way. I ran a new brake line to the rear brakes and plugged the extra hole in the "T". I noticed that the bore size of the stock 411 master cylinder is 7/8", and the 620 master cylinder bore is 3/4". I don't know what difference this makes. I also rebuilt all the wheel cylinders, so I can't say for sure if it was the master cylinder that made the difference, but the brakes are better now than they were. Quote Link to comment

The alternator problem may well be that after 47 years the brushes are worn down. Quote Link to comment
