Master cylinder - swap front to rear lines?

Hey guys,

Weird question I know. I'm doing new hard lines from my master cylinder. The car is an 82 SC with the trunk mounted boosted M/C. The car I'm working on has been converted from LHD to RHD, and I'm re-routing the hard lines in a much neater fashion than they currently are ( more like stock ).

Two questions;

1. Is there any difference between the front and rear circuits in the dual master cylinder? ie. can I run the front brakes from the rear most outlet?

2. Which is the front brake and which is rear brake 'outlets' on the M/C?

Thanks,

Thanks,
1) no, both parts are the same 20.6mm, unlike some of the water cooled cars that use a stepped m/c

2)Just the same way the m/c sits mounted in the car, front circuit is in front and rear circuit is in back
