4kq brake master cyl upgrade



Is anyone aware of a good upgrade to the brake master cylinder on my 84
4000q?  I have heard something about fitting a larger piston bore master
cylinder from a 5kq, 200, or maybe from an 80/90.  I have also heard that
the larger bore master cylinder is also shorter, so that a spacer is
required between it and the mounting surface.  But I've been told that the
spacer has an Audi/VW part number and that these items should be somewhat
readily available.  I want to achieve a shorter pedal stroke and a harder
pedal for better heal and toe use on the race track.

I am also searching the archives on this.  If anyone can point me to any
threads on this, I would appreciate it.  If I learn something new, I'll post
it.
