I’m interested in upgrading my single power brake master cylinder to a dual setup: Application: 1964 Impala SS 327 ci 350 tran Are there any specific dual units that are inclusive of all parts required for the update? (Master cylinder, Booster, lines) First time performing this task, any tips or issues I should be concerned about? Product/Business parts recommendations? Thanks in advance!
Make sure you get a MC with the same ID bore. A prop valve will probably not be needed if there will be no change in the brake system but some like to fine tune their system.
Simple! If you're only wanting tandem M/C Just use a tandem M/C off a 67-70 Impala which has the same bore size but tandem. Make sure the M/C is for the same configuration as your existing brakes [Drum/Drum or Disk/Drum] https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog...321467,brake+&+wheel+hub,master+cylinder,1836 scroll down to NM1494 for front disc brakes NM1505 for front drum brakes If you want to throw a bucket of money at it, try this Boosted AND Tandem https://mpbrakes.com/product/1964-c...rake-conversion-kit-9-dual-diaphragm-booster/
I did a swap on a '65 Chevy, used '70 Chevy donor parts. No proportioning valve, just the appropriate tee, this was drum-drum. I got everything from the donor car. Keep it simple. On my Ford, it has a GM disc set up in front. I added a distribution block with rear-bias adjustment. It also has a spot for the BL switch.
