How to Install Power Brakes in a Vintage Ford

Sb1a 173 0308 Brake Z
Here are three examples of brake distribution blocks. The four-wheeldrum-brake distribution block for 1967-'69 is "A." Front-disc brakeapplications for 1968-'69 received "B," with a built-in proportioningvalve. For 1967, the proportioning valve was located above the rearaxle. The Master Power Brakes' version is "C," which works well forcustom applications, where originality doesn't matter.
