    Powerglide cars have a diffrent M/C, pretty sure the bore is diffrent, but I'm not sure. part numbers are deffinetly diffrent. brakes are the same tho, unless wheel cylinders are a diffrent bore.. powerglide is considerably heavier than the 3spd, so they may have used more line preassure..

    the '49-'50 brake hardware is deffinetly more expensive.. 'most' of it is available, but all is available for the '51-'54

    The '53 and '54 have a 7/8" bore, the older ones are 1". The 'Glide cylinder is different because there is no mounting boss for the clutch pedal, other than that they're the same.
