Power Brakes

1960 F100 Custom Cab
What is an economical way to add power brake to my original manual drum brake set up? With the clutch master cylinder there isn't much room.

i would look under the hood of a 90 to 93 ford pickup they also used a clutch master cyl. on the firewall. could be other years also, but those years i owned at one time or another. i always thought it was a nice setup.

There is a seller on Ebay who regularly has a set-up which includes a reduced-size power brake booster/dual chamber master cylinder and it has a "spacer"that extends the unit out from the firewall,to miss the clutch master cylinder.I'ts designed for our 57-60 trucks,but is a bit ugly,and if you're a purist,probably won't satisfy you.He even has them in all chrome occasionally.Steve.
