Master cylinder compatibility question

Will a early SOHC master cylinder (mason jar type) support the dual discs off my 81 C ?

Will this:

Operate these?:

...or do I need something with a bigger bore. I'm too lazy to do the fluid displacement math...so I figured I'd ask you guys. I already have this master cylinder and like the idea of having two bikes with identical controls. Jump off one and on to the other and no adapting needed.

It will if, you use braided stainless steel lines.

Ah, that's what I was hoping to here. I'll definitely be using braided line. -03 AN Teflon lined. Will I be giving up a lot of braking performance if I don't upgrade?

I doubt it. Mine will lock up the front wheel on the Toolmatic, so I have to be very careful when the streets are greasy (like now that we have not had any rain, for 7 weeks.)

The turn around depends on if they get polished or not
