i have a 66 with drums all around. it has the jelly jar single master cylinder, manual.

i have a dual master cylinder waiting to go in, but what brake lines do i need to buy to get it in?

i'm not looking for anything expensive - basically just want the minimum as i'm on a tight budget.


thanks in advance.

this is an easy swap for your stang. what you need is a piece of line about 2ft long, a coupler to connect the lines, and a plug to seal the opening in the stock distribution block. run the new line to couple with the stock line that goes to the rear brakes, and bleed the system. you may have to get a longer line to feed the distribution block, but put the master cylinder in place first to see.
