Im restoring a 69 mach 1 clone. It is a sport roof that has had a few boys tear it down over the years. Did the 69 mach1 have disc or drum brakes on the front? This unit has been converted to disc. #2 Do you use the same distribution block when converting from power drum to power disc?
Thanks

The Mach 1's came with front Disc brakes, rears were drum . Not sure about the plain sports roof , I think maybe they also came the way.

Front disc brakes were not standard but an option on the 69 Mach 1. Probably most common with the 428 Engine options.

Also the proportioning valve is different for drum VS disc
