Well, I did some due diligence and read many posts and still have questions for you all. My 68 Notch has:
Front
Factory front manual discs. I installed drop spindles, tubular A arms and new single piston DBs. Keeping brakes manual. I assume this master cylinder / P valve will work fine. ?

Rear
The Factory 8 3/4 diff with BBP axles has been shortened to center drag radials and there is no wiggle room. This car came with SBP 10 x 1.75 drums. I need all new components from backing plate out. Should I search for B body slant six skinny BBP drums or switch 10 x 2.5" ? I assume with 10 x 2.5" I would need new 2.5 backing plates to accommodate/ swallow the additional width.

IMHO...
Yes.
Yes.
Not necessary.
Yes.

I would look for drums to see what size is plentiful then build from there.
