manual 4 wheel disc brake conversion

Hi there. I searched for this but didnt see what I was looking for. I have a 91 rs, drag only. Im about to bolt in a 9" with disc brakes. I want to convert it to manual non power brakes. Anyone know where i can get a conversion kit for this? Or what needs to be done. I want it to look good and work just as well. Sorry for the stupid questions but im used to full chassis cars, this is my first stock suspension car so.......

Re: manual 4 wheel disc brake conversion

There are a few places. I have searched this many times and there are a few resluts keep trying maybe with different key words. manual brakes, manual etc.. here are a few places to try and call and see what they say: paracing, smithperformance, burkhart chassis, ed quay. Most are based on a mopar master cylinder. strange engineering sells everything to do it wiith except the aluminum adapter plate to mate it to the firewall which you can have made at a machine shop. Hope this helps???
