Where can I find this:

For my 66 valiant?

I'm ok with drum brakes, but I feel the single master cylinder is very risky.

Thanks yall, cheers!

I don't know of a kit, but you need the master cylinder, proportioning valve, and front brake lines including the lines between the master cylinder and proportioning valve from a 68-up drum broke A body. Probably easier to buy a new MC and some universal lines, a tubing bender, and a double flaring tool.

I put a dual master in my 66 Dart, I just pulled the rear line from the distribution block plugged the hole in the distribution block, I added some new line to the rear line using a coupling and connected it to the front reservoir. I then hooked the line going to the distribution block (which now only serves the front brakes) to the rear reservoir of the master.
I put one in from a 73 duster but the pedal never gets hard, I will some day replace it with the same style that came stock in my 66/67 Valiant.

D'OH! I usually just swap to discs so I am a bit rusty on all drum brake systems.

I used the master and distribution block off of a '71 Demon. The master bolted right on. It had a cutout that left an open hole in the firewall I filled with black silicon sealer. I made up a couple brake lines and called it a day.
