Linda,

You can't really tell from that photo.  You need to remove it from the car and measure the bore to be positive.  There is a number cast into the side of the unit that is sometimes really hard to read.  It will either be 7/8 or 3/4.  You said you have front disk brakes so you want a 3/4" master.  A 7/8" master will work with disk brakes, but for best pedal feel and brake performance a 3/4" master is better.
