Thumbs up Project update

I'm getting closer on my drum to disc conversion on my '72. I have the master cyl and proportioning valve mounted, and eveerything is plumbed. Now I just need to bleed everything & it should be ready for a ride, I can't wait!

I'm shooting for this weekend, but I'm kinda busy. Hopefully I'll get a chance to tackle it.

shift1313-- how did you do the lines? Did you flare the lines? check the flares of the ones that are leaking. The degree could be off causing this to happen. Even a single degree of flare could result in a leak. I thought I would throw that out there incase you hadnt though of it yet.
