The DA master cylinder will only work with the DA brake booster as well. I recommend the 90-91 Civic EX master cylinder as it will bolt right up to your stock booster. It is 15/16" and can be bought at auto zone for like 55$ with lifetime warranty.

I am not sure how the 4040 prop valve will work with hf front/si rear brakes. But yes it will swap over.

EX... It's the only one with the 15/16 MC. If you use a DA MC you'll have to change to a DA booster.
