If the cups and end boots are the same, I don't see why not. How good are the bores? I have used a place that bores the cylinders out then sleeves them with a stainless steel sleeve back to standard size. They did some wheel cylinders for me that were off of a 1954 Mercedes 300b Adenauer. _________________ 1955 VW BUG European Deluxe Delivered to Holland. 1700cc single port, Zenith 2 barrel.

you can buy the cups at NAPA. they also have a catalog page of the dust boots, but i did not buy any from them.
16mm = 5/8"
17mm = 11/16"
19mm = 3/4"
