What is the difference of the bracket on the firewall between manual and power brakes. I currently have manual drums and want to convert to a factory power disc brake setup. Do I need to change the bracket on the firewall?
Thanks!

Do you have a picture of the power brake one?

Yes, you'll need to switch the firewall bracket as well.

I take it nobody repops those.
This is a power brake one from a 70 in top pic.
Lower is manual. Only pic I have of that style.

Don't know if they sell the plate separately ??? https://piratejack.net/1970-1974-b-e-body-firewall-reinforcement-plate/
If you go to hydroboost brakes I believe hydratech sells an ebody firewall bracket? Not sure what the cost difference would be from converting to stock power brakes vs. hydroboost?
I know where I got mine.
You might want to call a guy at Roseville....
