if i go to disks on my 69 will i have to stick to 71/72 power booster and master cyl. or will a later model one work?...when i say work, i mean will it bolt on and go? no fabbing, except maybe lines.

yes.........it will bolt in, make sure that either it has the lower hole for the rod or drill one 1 1/4 down from the manual hole on the brake pedal.

If you use the manual hole for P/B it will be really grabby because of the leverage ratio.

I just finished using a 87 brake system on my 67. A little moding but fits well. I had to trim the mounting bracket on the booster for the steering colunm firewall bracketand drill a couple of holes so I could use the 67's 4 firewall studs. Had to modify the the booster rod to make it longer and drill a hle 1 1/4 down on the brake pedal. I used the all the steel and rubber brake lines, proportioning valves etc. i took them off complete from the 87 and lined them up on the 67. I had to drill a few holes here and there for mounting the proportioning valve, line tie downs.
The front caliper steel lines matched up with some oval holes in the side frame rails, so I ran the rubber lines thru the holes, tighten down the nut, then screwed the steel lines into it. I used all the line hold downs, the rear frame brake hose bracket.
I used the complete front suspension and cradle, the rear axle backing plates, drums, rear axle brake line and axle cover bracket. The 87 had the 1 1/4 rotors and the 2 1/2 rear shoes

I thought you might ask that........
I will be back at the shop sometime in the next couple of days. I will take pix. I mocked everything up and then took it apart so I could clean and paint.
