I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to add some information. It was a good discussion but was kind of incomplete.
The bore size of a stock 1972 Vega brake master cylinder is .75" power or manual brakes makes no difference.
A C3 Corvette master cylinder (I used a power 1972 corvette M/C) has a bore of 1.00" for manual and 1.12" for power brakes.
With a 1972 Chevrolet Corvette power brake Master cylinder:
The brake pedal feel is rock solid. The petal moves about 1" with a significant amount of leg effort before locking up all 4 wheels. This makes heel-and-toe downshifting impossible. I
It did not come equipped to accept the pedal rod.
The lines were the correct size and it bolted to the firewall with no problems.
I would not recommend.
For a little context, I have 2001 Chevrolet Blazer rear axle and brakes. At this time I have the stock Vega front brakes, combination valve, and all lines.
