master cylinder help
I have a 1971 Ranchero it had 4 wheel drum brakes I have done the conversion to front disc, rear drums. I got the spindles, calipers and proportioning valve, from a 70 Torino. I was at a stand still because I did not know which line should go where on the valve until I saw another Torino at a show the other week since then I have ran my lines but I have one small problem the master cylinder I have is different from the one on the other car. The master I have the lines come out of the side the other car one line came out of the bottom. So I am not sure which side is for the front brakes and the back brakes. I guested that the front is for the front and the back is for the back but not sure.

What year Torino did you look at? Did you verify it had disc brakes?
1968/71 Fairlane/Torino/Mercury Montego & 1968/70 Falcon use the same power disc brake master cylinder: C8OZ2140A
But power disc brakes were an option thru 1972, so not all of these cars had it. And, in fact, power drum brakes were also an option thru 1972.
