Default master cylinder

I was wondering what the difference between the power brake master cylinders for 1970. I have the bendix vacuum chamber, and the parts store says w/o bendix stamp and they dont have the bendix type. Is there a differnce between the midland and bendix master cylinders?

I'm talking Factory here!! Factory parts, not "will fit--Boosters from hell, etc.

The 67-69 Midland/Bendix booster use the same masters. The 70 Bendix is Different.

Now the Difference. Ford increased the bore in the casting 1/32 on a inch!! Now, it doesn't take a very smart old farmer to figure it out--Dam, it still will bolt on ALL 67-70 Boosters, function fine, but have a tiny bit more fluid flow.
