The hard part will be finding one compatible with your large truck brakes. I don't have a clue on what to recommend for your application.

Especially if Bill is correct about the stock master having either a 10 inch or 12 3/4 inch piston bore.
I mixed up the diameter of the P/B booster with the bore size of the M/C.

1957/60 F500/600:

B9D2140A .. Master Cylinder-1.25" / Use with 10" diameter P/B booster / Obsolete

B7Q2140B .. Master Cylinder-1.50" / Use with 12.75" diameter P/B booster / Obsolete
