Brake conversion
Has anyone converted to manual brakes? I have 4 wheel disc. What size master would you use? I know a deep bore is required so the brake rod will not come out and I may have to change the geometery of the pedal to gain more leverage but not much after that. Also if converting is there an adaptor for the firewall where the booster was or is this fabricated. Any advise?

You wanna experience just how bad brakes can be? Try manual brakes.
Get a vacuum reservoir for your brakes. That might cure any ills your brakes might have.
