Ken,
According to the Autozone website, the M1584 master cylinder is a
remanufactured MC with a 1 5/16" bore.
The M1730 is a remanufactured MC with a 1 1/4" bore.
Both have a 1/2" - 20 primary connection and a 9/16" - 18 secondary
connection.
Just right click on the pictures to display the details.
