66 Newport Dual Conversion



Hey guys, this is kind of a continuation of a previous topic on my
buddies '66 Newport, all drums. The brake pedal is super sensitive and
will lock up the wheels with almost no effort. Many suggested the
booster was bad, and it seems to be that way. This car still has the
stock single master on it and we'd like to do the dual conversion
since we're under the hood anyway.

Its my understanding that the '67 master and booster will bolt up
directly, and just leave me with some new lines to be made, not a
problem at all. I was going to source the parts from Rockauto, with
Cardone part numbers #503520 or #506121. The only difference is one is
listed "without Field installed Hydro-Vac", and the other "with Field
installed Hydro-Vac". From what Google is telling me, Hydro-Vac was a
dealer installed option to help with stopping. I'm assuming this car
doesn't have it since its a '66, so I would want #503520 (without),
correct??

I first had called Prior Brake (listed in the directory) for rebuild
option and was quoted $150 plus the core cost of the dual master, and
they didn't have one in stock. This car is going to Hershey Oct 12th
so I figured I could just buy it all for cheaper and get it quicker
since there's no turn-around.

Thanks again,

- Dave
