calculating brake master cylinder size?

Greetings, I know that theres a forumla for calculating brake master size when you have the piston sizes of the calipers

anyone know what it is?

and also the piston sizes of sierra rear calipers?

I am only braking the rears with this master, so Im guesstimating that somethign like 0.625 or 15/16mm would be about right??

however my MSVA tester wont really be happy with guesstimates, and I cant afford to be buying things twice





heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it breaks, hit them with it
