Let me know when you have yours ready.
If you are just "flipping", try a rebuilt booster from local auto parts store. You may still have problems with the old MC or dist block.
I am completing two systems for drum/drum trucks (67-70) and should have pics tomorrow. They may be more than you are looking for, but both are certainly far better than that catalog set you show above..
1. 9" DD booster with correct size MC and new adj dist block. $350 + $75 S/H/I. This is the same size as your original PB sys.
2. 11" DD booster with the same items as #1 above. This is a more powerful system than the original. $375 + $75 S/H/I.
You may need to use two common fittings to attach your lines to the new dist block.
