I would think that it 
would be somewhere. Is it in the shop manual ?

Ron,

In my opinion, the power brake system is covered nicely in the factory
manual. Parts for it are hard to find. For that reason, I put a retrofit
booster and master cylinder assembly on my car and it worked very nicely.
The original pieces will fit back on the car when I find the proper parts
(if ever unfortunately). The 'kit' to do the conversion came from Andy
Birnbaum Auto Parts (SP?) long ago. It got me running at the time without a
lot of work. But, something I definately did not want to do to my car.

Some day, all of our old iron will have complete retrofit later model disc
brake systems as parts for them will eventually be absolutely not available.
Once again, my opinion.
