Hello i want to swap my manual to pwr brakes on my 68 dart,

I have a booster and brackets, the only thing i do not have is the MC and the brake pedal rod..

is the rod the same on the man and disc?

if not where can i get one new or used..

should i use a 68 disc MC or a later model?

thanks

Don

Why are you moving to power brakes on an A body? Really not needed in an A body.

Sometimes the pedal firmness / travel or lack thereof, is a function of the piston bore size in the master cylinder. Matching the proper master cylinder bore size to the brakes takes care of this issue.

Mancini has the brake pedal / master cylinder push rod.

Be certain to let them know what your setup will be, because there is a grommet that attaches to, and locates the pushrod.

well I do have a ecent peadal, but seems like i need more psi to the brakes..

the dart has the OEM mc, which i beleive is a 15/16 bore (may be wrong)

so how do i determine what size bore? do i need to know my whl cly bore size and my caliper bore size? The bakes work good but it takes a lot of leg work to get this done.
