56 f-250 brakes

Hi guys, this is my first post. I am restoring a 56 f-250. I am keeping it pretty stock, original 223, and 8 bolt wheels. The whole brake system needs to be redone, thinking about adding disk brakes to the front by swapping hubs from a 76-79 f-250. My question: Is there a dual master cylinder that would mount under the floor, and wouldn't interfere with the original clutch linkage?

Welcome to FTE.
I'm keeping my 55 F250 stock, so I'm not too much help.
