AND drum brakes have smaller wheel cylinders than discs have caliper pistons - although they tend to self-actuate to some degree. A drum/drum master cylinder should build good pressure for Ben, even if it was intended to be used with a booster and he intends to use it without.
What am I saying? Drum wheel cylinders tended to be smaller than disc caliper pistons. Thus, they'd need more pressure. Thus, their master cylinder would have been smaller too to make the additional pressure.
Ben, wanna put drums on the front of your car? (J/K)
