Hi I'm going to swap my front drumbrakes to discs using a kit from cpp, and I'm wondering if I could use my old power brake booster that I used for the drums on discs or if I have to buy a new one to get this to work?

The booster should be fine prob have to change the master and add a proportional valve though.
Okay! thanx! Can I use any junkyard proportional valve? Or does it have to be any specific?
I would se what the manufacturer recommends. Do you have a duel reservoir master now with the brake line front/rear if so a adjustable one might work. There are a ton of threads on this just do a search.
Here is a link for one of them.

What year booster? If it's the Kelsey Hayes style it won't work. The KH drum booster is (single diaphram) and the disc is (dual). If it's the later 73-up booster you may be ok

Any disc/drum proportioning/metering vave assy. for your body or similar(E-body) will be fine. Look for one in the best physical condition/situation(covered-dry-assembled).
