I have a question pertaining to this conversion. What is the recommendation for the master cyclinder when converting to disc brakes? I have a new standard one on my van now. Do they sell power boosters?

You need a dual master cylinder so you can have a different pressure on the front disks and rear drums. The 1967 dual master cylinder and brake pedal bolts into the older vans. Vic probably has them in stock.
