aftermarket master cylinders

I need to buy an aftermarket larger MC. Does anyone know where/what brand/how much a larger than stock MC would be? Am I correct in assuming that the largest stock ones are 7/8" or 3/4" bore? I need one with a full 1" bore.

Long story, I bought a Weir Racing Products Bellhousing and a hydro throwout bearing and don't have enough hydro force with the stock MC. Little help?

Or even better would be, Does anyone know what kind of vehicle a 1" bore MC came in that I can just cheaply buy from shmucks or autozone? All they can do is ask me what year/make/model and can't help me find a specific part.
TIA!

Yes. The McLeod (which is a ****er to bleed and doesn't impress me) is 13/16. Really late 4th gens (2001 & 2002 might be 13/16 also. Stock T5 masters are 3/4, I'm 99% sure.

Good luck on that. I would suggest looking at trucks. I know the 1995 GMC diesel 5spd which belonged to a friends parents, and a Bigblock Ford 5spd truck at work are hydraulic. I have no idea what'll have what bore though. It's pretty easy to pop the top off and measure them. Also, I think when I was researching this kind of thing, I looked at Wilwood, which won't be bolt-in, but...

Thanks for the suggestions. I figured something with a 1" wouldn't bolt right in. I've been prepared to weld up some brackets and such if I could even find one the right size...
