No dog in the hunt, just passing this along for someone wanting to restore their 83-88 master cylinder with "NOS".
NOS S-10 "SR" code master cylinder for a very good price ($98.99 plus ship/tax). The good thing about these is they use the same step bore main body and guts as most 83-88 G-bodies without hydro-boost. Casting # on bottom is 18010023, just like the G-body ones. All you need to do is swap your angled reservoir onto the S-10 master body, bench bleed it and bolt it on. If your G-body requires GM p/n 18013429, this will do the trick once you swap reservoirs.
Here's a thread I did on side-by-side comparison.

They share the same casting number as an 83-88 G-body! Well, namely, ones that fit my G-bodies.
Just something I never bothered to look at before. Maybe y'all knew that, but I never checked out much on S-10s. I knew they had those RH drive style master cylinders for S-10s that everyone loves to get, but never knew the regular ones were the same. Makes sense since the S-10 was virtually a G-body steering and suspension parts (to a degree) toss into a small truck. I knew they had "different" master cylinders, but never thought that all they did was fit it with a different shaped reservoir...
