    Unhappy 57 disc brake conversion

    Has anyone had any experience with 'Classic disc brakes.com' kit for converting front drums to discs and fitting of there master cylinder and booster.I purchased a kit which was supposed to fit but found the booster and m/cyl to long and interfares with the wiring and regulator on the battery box closest to the firewall.Recessing of the firewall chamber would need to be done by 1-1/2"and seems like unnesesary work for the sake of a shorter booster chamber.Not a good kit?

    interfares with the wiring and regulator



    how much difficulty would be involved in moving the regulator and wiring? sure,it's not stock. but clearly you aren't that concerned about 'stock' or you wouldn't be putting disc brakes on.
