I've been busy with my calculator (well excel to be exact)
Making some simple assumptions - BMW master Cylinder 25mm diameter Ford master Cylinder 22.2mm diameter Ford Caliper Piston 54mm diameter If you assume that a force of 100lbs (45kg although that is not strictly a force before anyone says anything!) is applied to the master cylinder, then for each combo the force at the pad would be in the region of - BMW MC 466lbs Ford MC 591lbs So basically with the BMW master cylinder you are only seeing about 78% of the pad clamping force you would with the ford unit. Hope that is some help.
