Steve-
Thanks for the continuing saga and pics.  Your write up is detailed enough
to complete the conversion without too much guessing.
Only question I have-was the front to rear bias of the brakes affected by
the conversion?  The 280Z master cylinder would seem like a wise choice-any
thoughts appreciated as I want to convert my fathers '70 before cruising
weather arrives.
Thanks!
Nathan
