When I was using the Monza master in my Vega, I just took a 1-5/8" freeze plug and drilled a hole in in just larger than the pushrod to fit through. Then I siliconed it (cup side toward the master cylinder) on the boss of the master cylinder. I now use the pushrod cup that I found when I was scrapping a '76 Cosworth. It fits in the hole in the firewall, and the pushrod slides through it.

There is only one problem I forsee with the manual Camaro master: it's a one-inch bore compared to the S-10's 24mm (approximately 15/16"). You'll experience a harder pedal.
chuck i have a 73 camaro power master in the car now IT has a hard pedal lol! i got the manual camaro master today and i could see the bore register is quite a bit smaller than the one in the car now. ill take a pic of the register bore with the digital calipers tomorrow nite after work so we can compare the pics between the power and the manual. i had an s10 master to start out with and it would not even fit in the booster and the rod cup at all!. im not into making the hole for the master any bigger in the firewall. i cant see why putting a camaro manual master on should give me a hard pedal as thats what its for, manual disc brakes. the rear brakes are a non issue as i have an adjustable prop valve in the rear brake line.
