Really doing it this time. About 6 mos ago I decided the car wasn't going to restore it's self. I work on the car many hours everyday and it is almost driveable. I installed the (many years ago ) Nissan 280ZX master and it leaks, and with the brakes bled (rears blocked off temporarily, fronts only) It is no longer listed with Cardone rebuilders. So, I am wondering if there is a newer recommendation as It would be nice to be able to drive it up on the rack as I am older and work alone, mostly.
Any help is apreciated.

The Courier tandem master fits and works great.
 
That doesn’t look like a Datsun. I might be wrong. I have the Courier and it looks like the picture. It bolts in mostly . If you have the Courier, don’t forget to remove the little valve in there for your front disk brakes - it’s a check valve to retain fluid for drums. You will build up pressure on the circuit for the disk brakes and it will not bleed off. I found out the hard way!

I used one of those Courier brake masters for years, you should be able to find a rebuild kit.
 
Here’s how I routed mine. I removed the check valve from the forward port. It is a bit tight and the banjo fitting made for a very adjustable installation. Hope this helps.
