? It WAS a single reservoir setup originally, yes. The master cylinder I used is the larger Disc brake master for a 1967-1970 Impala . Bolts right up, no difference in shaft function , bolt on and go. For your drum brakes just get a 1967-1970 Impala drum brake master cylinder, bolt on and go. You will need a distribution valve for splitting your lines though.

Edit , I should also ad that I've let several guys and lady's drive my trucks that I've converted, they all loved how easy the trucks stopped. My wife has driven every truck I've owned, manual drums or otherwise, she likes these power brakes or disc brakes the best.
