Disk Master cylinder swap??

I was just wondering/ thinking, do you guys think if I swapped to disk brakes from a 73-87 pickup onto my 67, could I just use the master cylinder off of a 71-72 with disk brakes and one of those adjustable proportioning valves from Summit or Jegs to make it all work?? Would the M/C bolt up?? would I be better off with a prop valve from a 71-72 pickup too?? Thanks for any help you can give!!

Re: Disk Master cylinder swap??

I'm pretty certain the master cylinder for a 71/72 will bolt up. I thought about doing this, but took a different route. Don't see why it wouldn't work, though. I think an adjustable prop. valve would be better than one for a 71/72, but I'm not 100% sure about that. Hope this helps you out some.

The m/c will bolt up no problem and I'd advise using the prop valve from the 71-72 as well.
