Bendix brakes?

The master cylinder that came on my 71 F250 has two different sized ports, I order a new one and both are the same size, so I ordered another (same part number) but the ports are two different sizes. I read in the manual that this depends on bendix or regular brakes, How do I know what it has on it? Thanks

By "port" I assume you mean the reservoir bowls.

There is a note on page 34 of NPD's current catalog which states: "Originally the Bendix-style MC had unequal size bowls and the Ford MC had equal size bowls."

By deduction, you have a Bendix MC.
