Hi, I have a 1960 Frogeye which has been sat in the garage for many years it is almost ready for the road, now my son (he is 6ft 3") wants to get it up and running the sticking point is we have put a disc brake conversion on the front no problem, what we are confussed about is some people are saying we need to change the brake master cylinder to a 3/4" and up grade the rear brakes. Others are saying you can just jump in and drive with out changing any thing else, I did read somewhere a garage had drilled a very small hole in the brake master cylinder rubber to let the pressure in the brake line slowley release so the disc pads do not bind. Any help would be much appricieated as we are going round in circles. I am new to the forum and will do a new member introduction later. Regards
