Is the master cly the same for a man. brakes and power? If so how do I get the rod out of the master cly?

Nope. they're different. The rod is held in by a rubber donut? O ring? Insert? Whatever you wanna call it, it's rubber, and ya just gotta PULL

No. There will be two rods for power. One from the pedal to the booster, the other from the booster to the master cylinder

I have the rod on the booster that connects to the peddle,and there is a rod that pushes out when you push on the peddleIf I take out the rod on the master cly will the mastercly work on the booster or is there another rod needed for the master cly ,or another master cly needed?sorry for the confusion

Yep. I'm confused. There is a single rod for manual brakes, and two rods for power. If what you're asking is "will the manual master cylinder work on the booster if I just remove the manual rod and bolt it up" then yes, it will probably bolt up and work. But the difference between the power and manual master cylinders is the size of the reservoirs and possibly some valving.
