I found this page on the net and fortunately saved it. I don't know the author, but hope he finds me and givesup some more info....
Brake installation
Below are the passenger side pictures. The front disks are
Levesque's kit, and the rear disks are from Jim Turner. Both gentlemen
were very responsive to my questions. I still have to send off for the
emergency brake cable. The rotors were cleaned after I took the
pictures. Below are the drivers side pictures. (((Note from Bob: The MC for the car w/o ABS was only 15/16", the car I also installed a combination valve from Master Power Brakes (part number VL3359). The remote reservoirs come from ECI (part number EC-1100). Chrysler wheels almost worked, but I had to put in 1/8" wheel spacers to clear the calipers. Excellently, straight and true. Also, with an amazingly low pedal effort.

1963 GT Hawk
This Hawk is my daily driver. I put about 4000-5000 miles per year on it.
with ABS is 1.0". NAPA reman MC is around $65.00. Also, the threaded fittings
are metric and you need adapters to go from the MC to SAE brake lines)))
How does the Hawk brake?
