= Disc Brake Conversion =

So, here it is, my master cylinder after painting.  I went out and bought a couple short segments of brake line with the right tube nuts to mate to my master cylinder.  I turned it up, over, and into the wells.  This is going to help me recycle my fluid while I bleed the master cylinder.

Lines routed into the wells. Master intalled with stainless lines and chrome cap

I bled the brakes... just to get an idea of how the pedal will feel.  I am going to have to install my proportioning valve yet, so I will have to re-bleed.  My little bro Keith helped me with the bleeding... man that boy can pump a brake pedal!!

CONCLUSION

The brakes work great.  I have not yet figured out how the proportioning valve is gonna help me, but I have not taken the time to really tune it yet.  It does stop MUCH better.  I will not be getting power brakes... there is no point.  I like the way it works.  I would recommend it to anyone who has drum fronts.
