I did the Master Power power brakes with front disks conversion on my auto trans 66
So there's quite a few differences, but some things still apply. What I would suggest for the lines is that you just scrap the original short line that went from the master cylinder to the dist block. Leave the front brake lines attached to the block as you said. Measure approximately how long of new lines you need to go from your new cylinder front brake port to the dist block and from your new cylinder rear brake port to your now disconnected feed line to the rear. Buy the closest (but not shorter) lengths of pre-made Nickel Copper lines and bend them to fit. The one to the dist block will be pretty simple. For the rear you will have to CAREFULLY bend the original rear feed line up and away from the dist block so you have a little clearance to attach your new line with the appropriate brake line splice fitting. Of course plug the rear outlet of the dist block as you said. The Nickel Copper lines are very easy to work with and resistant to rust. The one thing you should verify with someone more knowledgeable than me is that it's ok to bypass the dist block to the rear because it may be that the block is also functioning as a prop valve.
