66 charger power brake to manual

[Monkeymaster]

Hello
My 66 charger had the single circuit power brakes with drums all around, I am swapping it all out and going with manual brakes using the Mopar Action disc brake swap, I did this with my 69, am very happy, but it was a manual brake car.
I see where the 66 power booster has the studs pointed into the interior, so when I get to installing the new master cylinder, do I just use some bolts ?
THANKS

Some original manual brake master cyl. had knurled studs in the master, with the nuts on the inside. Bolts will do, but might require a helper to install.

The studs are available from The Ram Man, and probably other places.

Ok
I see where my 66 bolt pattern is taller than my 69, but they both have the same backing bracket and both have the lower holes at the same length down from the top bolt/stud.
Can I just drill out the appropriate bolt pattern and the press in a couple of studs or mig weld a couple of bolts for the upper set of holes ?
Thanks

There is a different firewall reinforcement for manual brakes. All the necessary holes are in the inner brake pedal mount, so no worries there. You could modify the plate you have or find the correct one. You need a manual push rod as well. The big hole in the plate you have is in the wrong place also.

Make sure the master you use has the groove cut in the piston for the rubber, pushrod retaining ring. Very important.
