Looking to order full replacements for my build and need everything!
69 GTX 440.
Originally 4 wheel manual drums.
Wanting to go with front disc, rear drums and power.
Need full front and rear kits, booster and master assembly, lines, valves, hoses, etc...
Planning to use 15-inch wheels and was looking at the Wilwood 6 piston kits from summit.
Basically looking for assistance on the full setup and what I should be getting.

@Kevin Bisgrove try one of these guys: Dr Diff, Peter Bergman, or Strange Engineering.

If you do go with Summit Racing, looks like John has some more 10% off coupons for Summit.

More Summit 10% Discount Coupons

I scored some more Summit 10% Discount tickets from another Racer. PM me if you would like a couple. Expire 12/31/2024 Good for your entire order BUT each code is only good for a single use.

Before going with one of those gold offset booster/master combos that you will find in many kits. I suggest Pirate Jack booster master. Found here. Bendix Style Mopar 1966-1970 B Body Power Brake Booster Conversion Kit BCK8536-1 OEM Style for 1966-70 Charger, GTX, Road Runner, Satellite

Dr. Diff has everything you need, and is good to deal with. He is highly thought of on this site.

Something to consider, I put new front disc and 11 x 3 drum rears on my 69 440 RR with a manual master cylinder, have no complaints it stops just fine. I do not think the power booster is necessary.

If he’s running a high lift camshaft that motor won’t produce enough vaccum making the boaster useless unless he uses an external vaccum pump. All stock motor fine. Big cams have to choices 1) manual breaks or 2) external vaccum pump. Sorry to sound repetitive

I'm gonna show that to my uncle! He's gonna take in this GTX project this weekend once we installed the fender, tonneau covers, and headache racks on the truck and clear the garage. We're gonna take a look at that conversion kit.
