Has anyone installed an electric master cylinder in their Dodge Dart?

I was looking at this one by ABS Power Brakes.

Are you wanting ABS or have a cam that won't make enough vacuum or do you want better breaking?

We did a pro touring car 10 years ago with electric brakes, hope they are better now than then! We took it off pretty quickly after almost crashing a few times...

Looking at a manual drum to disk conversion also. Braking is currently dangerously bad. No room for regular power steering.

And you want to keep 5x4" bolt pattern? Do you have a max rim size in mind?

Trying to keep the original 14 x 5.5" 5x4 bolt steel wheels. Saw this conversion kit: https://www.classicindustries.com/product/1969/dodge/dart/parts/pb40020.html

A lot of guys who want to keep 5x4 and 14-15" rims use this kit

1965-72 Dodge, Plymouth "A" body, with 10" drums Wheel Kit

or the Wilwood

For the price of the Classic kit I'd buy the Wilwood.
