I was never happy with the brake pedal after the disc brake conversion (link in the first post of this thread.) I used aftermarket booster and master and never liked it. I wound up using OEM booster and master available at any local parts store.

Bobby, did you make the P2 Combo Valve bracket? I really like how that looks!

It was this bracket > https://www.summitracing.com/parts/aaf-all41045
Turned out it was too close to the master cylinder and I had to add metal to space it farther down. I could have just mounted the valve under the bracket but it just looked better on top of the bracket.
