Bendix or Moraine?

    I want to upgrade my '66 Wildcat to a two hydraulic circuit brake system. I understand that I can do this by putting a '67 Wildcat MC and plugging the back hole on the distribution block and rerouting the rear line to the MC.

    My question is what MC do I need to match the booster? From this thread I believe the booster is a Moraine, but wanted to see if I could get confirmation before ordering the new MC.

    Thanks in advance.

  5. Ken,

    I asked the same question, and got no replies.

    Here is what I did that may or may not be helpful:

    I went to Advance Auto and bought a Cardone 1967 dual brake master cylinder. I took the crapshoot and went with the one "With Power Brakes With Drum Brakes With Deep Piston Hole With Bendix Brake Booster". It is part number 10-1328.

    I brought it home and it mounted up perfectly. It looks like it will work with the exception (big exception), that once I mounted it up to my 64 booster, the bar that holds the lid on will not open up. It hits on a dimple of the booster.

    It seems that the only solution that would be bulletproof would be to buy a '67 booster and '67 master cylinder.

    GStage1 Always looking for parts!

    Local yard just got in a 67 Wildcat with pb. I got the large alum drums from it and they are in exc cond. I can get the booster, distribution valve and mc (mc as a core) if you need them. Will be back at the yard on Sat, 5/27.

    I got the tilt wheel and power bench seat from it.
