Hi guys, I've done some reading and searching but pretty confused. I have a 64 gal with original 4 wheel drum brakes and the single bowl master cylinder.
My goal is to
1. Be able to to a good powerbrake, light up the rear for 1/8 mile strip racing and the occasional burn out off the track. While I'm at it if I can actually improve braking then that's a plus.
So I was thinking I'd move to a 2 bow master cylinder, bought one for a 68 Gal and was going to put it in when I had my engine out last week. Well, all was good till I noticed there was no hole to screw in the brake light sensor and the brake lines I got were all wrong so I put it off for later, now I want to figure it out.
So, is there an easy way to move to a 2 bowl system? and I have a JEGS proportioning valve I was going to put on the rear brakes so I could do my burnouts effectively.
I'm not sure what 2 bowl master cyl I should get. Or, is there a better way to approach this like convert to disc brakes on the front etc...
Thanks fellas !!
