I dont have both cars side by side in front of me yet, but...
Im transferring the entire brake system from 66 Dart 9” manual drums to 65 Barracuda formerly 9” power drums. What challenges might I encounter at the firewall in mc mounting? I think the Barracuda firewall has a curious bracket that formerly mounted the booster. I’d love to update to a dual circuit manual mc while I’m at it.

Firewall is the same once the bracket is removed, brake pedal may be different. Grab the pedal assembly from the donor vehicle. Also, don't spend money on 9" drums for anything you're actually going to drive in traffic. :shock:

The 65 has been sitting for 20 plus years and the 66 is operational. Priority is to make the 65 as drivable as the 66- treating this as a body swap. I may have a dual circuit mc and plumbing in storage from the PO of the 66.
