    So my CSRP Swap #2 should be here tomorrow :yahoo:

    The company only sells a power brake option for certain year cars on certain swaps..
    Has anyone on here turned a CSRP kit from manual to power brakes before? Would you just have to do whatever is necessary to change 75 Granada disc brakes to power?

    I have a new 74 Mav master cylinder installed, but dennis said to use his anyway. Figured if I'm gonna be switching masters, might as well look into this. Thanks!

    If you had the Factory Maverick Power Brake pedal, booster, and associated parts...along with the prop valve, I see no reason why you could not do it. The spindles, rotors, calipers are all the same for a manaul disc brake car as they are for a power disc brake car.

    Awesome! Thanks! Maybe the need for the other parts besides the booster is why csrp doesn't offer the power upgrade for my year and swap. That makes sense.
