Thanks i will give them a try.I was wondering if a master cyl. from a 63'or64 studebaker would work.

Use a 68 Mustang M/C, you WILL need to adjust the push rod that goes into the M/C bore. I cut the one on my 62 Lark about 1/4" short, then drilled and tapped it to accept a 10-32 button head allen screw. Use the button head allen to adjust, then a drop of loctite on the threads.
The Mustang M/C will bolt up to the fire wall.

Thanks Jim, that sounds easier and quicker,than the others , i talked to another guy a few minutes ago and he has a Rambler master cyl. on his 63' he is going to call with the # tomorrow, it's a two (2) bolt, but he has not had any trouble ,It has been on the car a couple of years.

Just for the record, NEVER use a Master Cylinder like this or this kit on a car like this '62 Lark Drum brake car! [xx(]

Brakes are nothing to fool with or guess! This is ONLY for Power Disc. Brake cars! [:0] There would be NO residual valve on at least the front brake portion or both. [xx(]

If your mounting is 4 bolt how about this for a non power, all drum 72 Plymouth duster?

I tried that one ,the activating rod exit's between the top and bottom bolts ,and the Studebaker one exit's between the two bottom bolts so it would not align with the hole in my firewall, thanks any way.
