hey guys...so i am almost done with my front disc brake conversion on my 68'. I have completed the whole front disc to go with the 2 in lowering spindles. I have changed out the upper and lower ball joints so far.

but have a few questions:

1)what type of brake master and booster do i get now?
LMC has the booster that is saying something about radical cams and blowers and i'm not sure if thats the right one i should be getting?

2)also i need to change out the outter tie rod because it seems to small to fit the new spindle. Do i go with a '71 outter tie rod?

3)and the brake line to the new caliper does not match the old brake line hookup. is there an adapter or conversion for that?

Thanks!
