Wilwood Chrome Powder Corvette C2 Tandem Master, 1963–1967, 7/8-inch Bore with Pushrod

Chrome powder coating finishes this C2-specific seven-eighths-inch tandem master. It combines a shorter Corvette pushrod with an integral reservoir, supporting a dual-circuit conversion without using the generic long-rod Compact Tandem configuration. Based in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering has designed and manufactured disc brake systems since Bill Wood founded the company in 1977. Its fittings, valves, calipers, brake lines, master cylinders and rotors are used across motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Matching a component means checking both its own specification and the braking assembly around it.

Technical Details

• Service: Factory rebuild only; do not disassemble the tandem piston assembly
• C2 linkage dimensions: Exact page lists 2.73-inch rod and 9.28-inch overall; DS-1287 shows 2.90 inches from flange to rod tip. Confirm the actual assembly and pedal engagement.
• Valve clearance: Optional bracket kit 260-14248 does not fit the C2 installation space; mount the valve separately

Fitment & Compatibility

Match the actual 1963–1967 Chevrolet Corvette C2 brake system: early drum cars require a properly plumbed tandem conversion, and the disc-brake reference is for non-power 1965–1967 cars. Wilwood brake-kit installations require their own bore check. Do not use optional valve bracket kit 260-14248; C2 clearance prevents its installation.
