How can you fit a B-body mater cylinder on the stock booster?
Just ot a 81 firebird booster (ok not a b-body), and it wouldn fit on my booster at all.
The bolts are on the right place, but the diamater is much bigger.

I am pretty sure G-body boosters come with two different size holes where the M/C slips into. I am not talking simply the difference between a single and dual booster either. For example:

B-body master fits in my single booster fine.
Ive seen b-body masters fit in dual boosters fine too.
The dual booster I got from a GP did not work! The hole was too small.

I think its luck of the draw at least with the dual's finding the right size.

Did some search and found that in 82 the malibus had the bigger type MCs
Also found the for year 82 you can order hydroboost, for around $180.
