This is the brake switch for my '68 Dart manual brakes. There are six brake line ports on the switch, five for brake lines and one for a blank plug. Does it matter where the respective brake lines are connected?
Yes, of course. It's a split system, so it has to be separated.Yes.
Basically fronts on one end rears on the other, the plug IIRC would only fit properly in one hole on the end
I don't think so, see no reason for that. The switch is designed to detect a difference in pressure between the front and rear.Are the master cylinder ports front/rear specific?

I would plumb it the way the factory did myMopar.com has factory service manuals free download.not on a drum car
Close.. On the master cylinder the larger reservoir is front brakes. Manual brakes have the same size on both reservoirs
I studied the FSM before posting. I did not find any diagrams of the hydraulic system.I would plumb it the way the factory did myMopar.com has factory service manuals free download.
Some master cylinders are designed to apply the front brakes before applying the rear brakes, and some master cylinders use pressure from the rear most cyl to build pressure that apply the front most cylinder
My car is drum/drum.Close.
In a disc / drum setup the larger resivour will be the disc regardless of manual or power.

Perfect! Thx.
