Was able to complete my conversion over the weekend as well. I got the wife out to the garage a couple times to help me bleed the brakes. It kind of brought a tear to my eye to see her under the car cracking open those bleeder valves while I pumped the pedal, (just kidding). I really dislike the job of bleeding the brakes and it seems as though I can't ever get it done the first time. I still need to make a clamp to assure that the two lines down by the tee don't vibrate and rub together. And then it should be job done. Thanks again to Doug who generously supplied me with the pedal return spring as I was having no luck finding one.

Finally got back to the brake work on my '63. Can't test it out just yet as we went from 67 degree weather to a blizzard in the span of 3 days last week. However, after all connections, and bleeding the system, it has a solid pedal.
I've included a link to pictures of the parts for the conversion for those that are interested. This was a kit from Inline Tube for the new lines and distribution block from the master.
