Hey everyone.....
Robert, You are CORRECT! I did a little searching on the internet and
found this web page:
http://www.howstuffworks.com/master-brake.htm/printable

It looks like the dual MC still has only one force unit, which is equal
to the Alpine single MC. It uses pressure balancing to couple the two
front and rear brake circuits. Now that that is cleared up, there is
still the metering and proportioning valves to debate over.

Thanks Robert!
