Brief update on the brakes for the '62 Catalina:
- Installed the new dual master cylinder & booster from Master Power Brake, P/N BM17015-4.
- Had to cut the mounting studs & pedal rod to fit the master cylinder properly.
- Replaced most of the brake lines with the Cu/Ni material. Great product, easy to bend & do the double flares.
- Kept the front distribution block & plugged the port going to the rear. NAPA had the correct adapters for the two different thread sizes on the master cylinder along with the right plug for the block.
- Adjusted pedal height to ~6" from the floor.
- Car stops fine & took a few photos.
Thanks for all the good feedback!
