Default SN-95 brake conversion

I just bought complete 95 k-member and rear. I looking to install in a 79 Fox with manual brakes. Is therere special parts needed to make this work with good brakes. I also got the booster, master cylinder and proportioning valve. I'd rather go manual if it can be done cheap!!

thats a good year to do .its a 2 port master .a master from a 85 lincoln town car works great too.put it together w power brakes and see how it feels.my car stops on a dime no locking up very positive feeling.but the last one i did i needed to put an adjustable proportioning valve on it .which is simple nice union on firewall pass side

Thanks John, as far as the pedal rod will my original 79 manual brake rod work with this set up or will I need something different.

As far as the top, youll have to come take that bish off!!!! Tools here, I dont have time bro. I'll keep the car till you can make arrangments to come get it, if that helps. If not let me know soon cause I finished rapin it today for the last few little things I wanted.
