Have anyone done anything neat with their brake setup?? Beside the normal 1800 conversion.

I'm looking at converting the single circuit to a dual circuit setup, and just wondering if anyone has done something different? I'm thinking more on upgrading the front calipers, and master cylinder to a true dual circuit setup, and adding an additional line/portioning valve to the rear drums.

Have anyone made a mounting plate for the front axle to mount dual circuit calipers (i.e. 140 or 240 calipers)?

BTW- I did have all the brake fluid leak out of my master cylinder by the way of a leaking rear wheel cylinder. Forgot to check the fluid level before jumping into the car and driving down the street. Not fun! I narrowly missed hitting another car.
