Re: Manual vs Power brakes..

IMHO. Never go cheap on brakes and tires. I bought Baer 6 piston 14” brakes for the front and 4 piston for the rear. Then setup a hydroboost.

Which is complete overkill & expensive unless you're racing it.
If it is a street truck just convert to the 71-72 stuff. Makes the most sense.
