Hello,
I am new to the forum. Please apologize if this has been covered in the past. I just purchased a 1963 Cruiser. It has the original power booster and front disc brakes. Very nice options from the factory. It appears that it is still a single cylinder master. As I move through the mechanicals, I am making a list of safety, cosmetic and performance upgrades that I want to do. In addition to all of the regular catch up maintenance that needs to be verified and completed.
My main question is whether there is a straight forward way to upgrade the master cylinder to a dual chambered version? I would like to keep the stock power booster. I am aware that I am going to have to plumb the front and rear separately. I am also going to need either a proportioning valve and residual pressure valves.
I really appreciate the advice and I look forward to many years of learning.
Thanks,
Steve
