    i got a 1950 poncho and the guys i bought it put a brake booster from a 1980 chevy caprice (dont ask me why he did but is done)in it, the problem is that for the back the fittings on the drums i think might be a slightly bigger that the lines from the caprice i have now, does any know how i can fix this?

    also since the car has a beefed up 350 in it i was thinking of putting disk brakes in the front...does any body know what spindels fit the 1950 GM set up?

    im sorry if im asking stupid questions but im kinda new to this

    if you have a flareing tool you can make your own line that goes from the master to the axel spliter on the back. that should take care of the mix matched fitings

    as for the front spindles, donno bout any junkyard pieces, but MPbrakes or Fatman might have spindles for it that take disc binders
