Not I. Tho I thought of them at one time. I'm doing the conversion but by far with less expense than a SSBC kit. I've bought everything separately and only need what's below to have every thing. All for less than $350.00.
The best part I've found is from Ames' newest catalog...... Page 269.. Part number R129TX for 1964 to 66. $139.00/kit. Works with manual or power brakes. I'll be using this kit on my 66 GTO for my swap to manual disc brakes. This is a new kit this year, never before in their catalog. Or go to Ames online and you can find it. I am impressed with it. Other kits will only have a master cylinder that's for power only or manual only. At least I can switch to power brakes in the future if I want to without the added expense of buying a master cylinder for power brakes.

No problem Mike. I know many don't have the new Ames catalog yet that has it, or haven't noticed it yet if they do. It was a surprise to me. Too bad it wasn't in the previous catalogs. I'm going with it because it looks stock. I don't need anything fancy like the chrome or aluminum ones.
