I did the scare bird disc conversion on my 68 Fury that was all manual drum. What booster and master have you guys used in the conversion that works with the pedal set up of a original manual brake set up.
 
If you're using a factory disc master and booster (recommended) you will need to change to a power brake pedal setup. The leverage ratio in a manual pedal is not right for a boosted brake setup.

I don't know if there is an aftermarket master and booster combo that works with a manual pedal set.
 
You also have clearance issues on your '68 as to which booster will fit. The '72 and later units are too big around to fit on your firewall and still clear the engine block (big block) and any fender braces. You should probably use the 68-71 booster setup as it is sure to fit, be sure it is the disc brake unit so that you will have full operating pressure.
