Hello V865,
Take a look at this web page.

Let me know how it goes. I have been looking for a granada to do this conversion but I might just save up my money and buy the stainless steel brakes conversion package.

I used a conversion kit from SSB and it works great. i even modified the 66 single disc master cylinder to use my power brake booster by slightly shimming it from the fire wall away from the export brace.
