power brake booster, etc.



Looking for some more advice here if possible.  The master cylinder gave up
the weekend before last. Finally after nearly 28 years in the car, 18 of
which it
was in storage.  Russ from Washington state got me a disc brake setup from
a 75 Hornet. Because the master cylinder gave up I am finally going to put
the
disc brakes on the front of my 70 Javelin and replace the booster/master
cylinder
at the same time. Anybody had any good luck with cross referencing boosters
and
masters for these applications? Will the Hornet booster and master bolt up
to the
Javelin firewall? Pushrod length gonna be a problem? Russ sent me the
proportioning
valve so I see no problem there. Right now the plan is to leave the drums in
back,
but maybe later install discs in back or go to a Ford 9" with discs.
So, in summary,
Is the booster and master from a 75 Hornet interchangeable with a 70 Javelin
equipped with
power drum brakes, but going to discs? If my approach on this is wrong what
parts do I need?
Maybe just the master from a 75 Hornet? And get a rebuilt booster for the
Javelin?

thanks,

Armand
