Youll need to change spindles and outer tie rod ends... will the master bolt up?? I think so... Id convert to the dual circuit and did in the Notch.. MUCH safer! your master needs to match the calipers though... ie: large late caliper with late master or early calipers with early master.

I realize that the '66 is a single circuit MC and a single cavity reservoir, but I would be willing to "T" the line for now and maybe add a dual cavity reservoir in the future. Are the calipers compatible? > > I told myself that I would try not to do too much cannibalizing of the Fasty, but I am years away from needing brakes on her and I can send the Square's calipers and MC out to Jim for a leisurely rebuild in the meantime. Boy, does that sound like I am rationalizing the cannibalization. 8^) > > Later, > John Jaranson > '71 FI Auto Fasty (Jane) > '66 Square (???) > http://hometown.aol.com/jaransonT3 > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > Too much?
