UPDATE: Brembo breaks

as you may know, i while back i got a brembo big break front kit for my car.
it took me a while to get them put on beacuse some modifications had to be done. and, while i was waiting, i did some racing/canyon running and sorta burnd my Master Break Cylinder. so i got the breaks put on today, they feel great, but because they are a lot bigger, they require higher pressure/more fluid, and now i have a tired master break cyl.
so i need to buy a new master.

i have a Question, can i put on a SL600 (94/95) master break? were the breaks any bigger on the V12's? because now i have these huge breaks, and idk if the stock 500 master break cylindar can fully operate the brembos.

please help

Mark

did they feel tired right after they swapped em? did they flush the fluid at that time also?

could it be possible that there is air in the brake lines?
