I want to put a dual master cylinder on my 64 bird. Any ideas of a kit would help.

go to any parts store and ask for 67 mustang master cylinder. you will also need a couple of shrt pieces of brake line about a foot long. i did one on a 65 that had a proportioning valve, not sure about the 64. it was an easy bolt on to brake booster with minor adjustment to push rod going into boosterI want to put a dual master cylinder on my 64 bird.

Lots if useful hard to find stuff
The introduction of the “dual” master cylinder came with two separate braking systems that would allow the ability to stop the car if you ruptured a brake line. You ‘64 does not have a dual system. All four brakes run off of one system. You are wasting your time and money to install a dual master with a “kit” to make it work. For proper operation, you will need to replace your brake lines with lines that make each wheel independent of each other, either front and rear, left or right, or a combination to make it work as intended.I want to put a dual master cylinder on my 64 bird.

Hey BigClay. On the '64, there's a single master that pumps into a splitter and one line from the splitter goes to the two front brakes and other line to the two rear brakes. So a dual master could be connected to those two lines and there would be two independent systems. Am I thinking about this correctly?The introduction of the “dual” master cylinder came with two separate braking systems that would allow the ability to stop the car if you ruptured a brake line.
