I fitted discs to my last Cf and used the original master cylinder.
Had no problems at all, although I *think* the disc brake model ( CF2 ) has something extra fitted to the system.
Funny old life.

i drove around with disc brakes for some time with orig master.. not advised thou. front brakes were sqeeking cause of the line presure and the proportion is wrong between front and back.

just change the master cylinder. makes it much easier and its not a big job.
