Jim two things to watch out for. Make sure the MC you have is machined in the back of the piston for the rubber ring that prevents the pushrod from falling out. Sometimes power brake MC don’t have that machining. Plus I’ve found a MC with a bore of 1 or 1 1/32” works well for non power brakes (at least with disc brakes) Many power brakes MC use a much larger bore (1 1/8” sometimes ) and will give you an extremely hard pedal. In other words you may not want to use the MC from your booster. From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of JimJablonski Team, I am removing the power brake booster from my '64 Fury to enable going to manual brakes. I believe the only to-do is to swap out the pushrod. (I already converted to a dual reservoir system.) I know Mancini and Mopar make adjustable pushrods. Anyone have experience with these products? Or, even better, is anyone planning the opposite (going from manual to power) and interested in a wonderful deal on a never-been-used booster? Hint, hint I want your manual pushrod...
