only recommended if you switch to disc brakes

No. I did the same thing not too long ago. The only changes needed involved the hard lines coming off the new m/c and the old distribution block.

No, I just did this on my 66 Monaco all drum brakes. You will need to make some new lines.

Don, did you make your own lines, or use a kit from Classic Lines, etc?

Did you use Nickel/Copper lines?

I used the green lines from napa on my 64 880 which I believe are the nickel /copper lines. bend really easy. 80

I made my own using Cunifer tubing and all the fittings from Fedhill. A cheap bending tool worked great, I used 12 gage house wire for a pattern. Bought a cheap double flaring tool and learned a lesson, spent more on a good Eastwood tool and the falres were perfect.

Thank you all for the helpful replies, pics really help, planning to tackle the change over this week end.

I agree, no need to change booster. Make sure the rear chamber of the m/c (closest to firewall) feeds the front brakes.
