Killerbee, I fought that same thinking. I wanted the Clings kit for a '39 transmission conversion....really nice. My problem, ultimately, was all the unwanted friction of the original brake cross shaft to move the master cylinder. The Ford master cylinder is available at any NAPA store across the country for about $40, and I wanted the safety of the dual circuit. I recommend the Andrews Green book...he has all the alternative ways to do the conversion...some of which I liked. My problem was with the math to not over/under stroke the master. Trust me, if you were to see the overbuild of Daves kit you would feel a bit better about the cost.
