swapping master cylinders

I am in the process of installing disc brakes on a 66 F250 off of a 78 F250 with dual piston calipers. I have a brake power booster off of a 76 F350. I am trying to find out if the master cylinder for the F250 will work with the F350 booster. Any info you have would be helpful.


Thanks
Jack

thanks for your reply and help. I wasnt in a position to buy a doner at this time. I help out the guy who owns the junkyard down the street in my little podunk town and he lets me pick what ever parts I need with out charge so that is why it is kind of piece milled together. You told me in a nother post about drilling a new hole for the power booster rod, is it on the actuall pedal arm that I need to drill or on the booster rod?

Thanks again
Jack
