Is anyone here running manual 4 wheel discs on their car? If so what size of master cylinder are you using and are you using the stock pedal ratio for manual brakes. Also what would be a good power booster that will fit my 64 Fairlane in the same location as the manual M/C. (Not stuck up in the air like the factory booster). I currently am converting using 99 Crown Vic brakes on the front with 98 Mustang discs on the rear. The master cylinder is 1.125".I would like to keep it manual because of the lack of room and lack of vacumn. (big cam) Thanks in advance Steve

Sorry Steve,I can't help you. Have you given thought to the boosters from a 70-71 Torino or early Bronco? Those are alot smaller than the regular ones. As for four wheel discs,you could get an adjustable proportioning valve and go from there.
