I see people ask what master cylinder to use on a manual disc/drum conversion and here is what I used on my 67 coronet rt.
Car was factory manual 11x3 front 11x2.5 rear drums. I went with the 11.9" rotors (slotted) with 1971 coronet calipers (pin mount)
For the master I went with a bendix 15/16" bore manual disc/drum from a early/mid 70s A body. All the lines were plug and play. The pedal travel and pedal pressure is excellent. Honestly I can't tell the difference in pedal pressure or travel than what it had before. But way better consistent braking than the drums that slowed down and faded after a couple of good stops. Now I need to relearn to drive my car and wait a little longer before I get on the brakes
