    Will the master cyl. & booster for my power drum brakes work with a disc set up? I know I'd have to change the proportioning valve.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

    Generally not. The biggest reason is that a disc master cylinder will incorporate residual pressure valves that a drum m/c won't have. There were a few years where the valves were external, so maybe someone sharp on the '70 Skylark setup will chime in (assuming that's the car you're speaking of).

    Yes, I'm referring to my 70 Skylark. Thanks!
