I did the same in my 65 Dart (see avatar). Since I may eventually change to front disks, I installed a booster. I got one from a 74 Dart, but used just the bracket/lever assembly. I mounted a booster w/ alum MC from a newer car (95-99 Breeze), and only had to rat-tail file the mounting holes on the bracket slightly. Today, you can find a new brackets/booster/MC on ebay for ~$140, so I suggest that.
At the time, I assumed a booster would be needed for disks since even the smallest cars today seem to come w/ boost. But, many here claim manual works fine. I was never good at the leg press in the weight room. When the booster failed in my 65 Newport w/ 11" drums, it took both feet and still drifted thru a stop sign, so can't imagine w/ disks. But that is 4000 lbm vs ~2800 lbm for my Dart. The little I have driven the Dart, the brakes seem fine, and not too touchy even w/ the 7/8"ID MC.
