There should be a pics hyperlink in that post that show how I modified the bracket. Hope this helps. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2009 Posts: 208 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2009 Posts: 208 | I did it to my 58 - you can get the complete kit on ebay or through most parts guys LMC etc.
I upgraded to power brakes - drum/drum. Bolted right in - had to drill 1 hole.
The only issue I had was I had to remove the e-brake cables to make room - There is a pulley in the 58 that I need to push to the rear about 10 inches. Still haven't put it back in (its cold outside).
My kit re-used the existing brake pedal.

In order to keep your orig. pedal assembly you will need to fab a bracket to mount your dual master cylinder. It's not hard to do. If you send me an email I can sent you some pictures and a short write-up on how I did this on my 46. It's worth the effort IMHO.

Excellent solution that doesn't distroy the original brake/clutch pedal bracket! I'll have that bracket fabricated and give "Lucille" a safer braking system. Your input is greatly appreciated!
