Well worked some on my brake situation today, in case you didn't know I am installing a Girling Master Cylinder on a ATE Booster... Why because I wanted a solid answer on whether it works or not so my car is a test subject. The Cylinders external measurements are all the same as well is the piston (externally), the body is the same length only visual differences are bleed nut ATE is between brake res and the Girling is on the side of the Master Cylinder. I changed the front lines with stainless steel units from Paragon as well. I still need to install the rear lines and bleed the system but for the times being I changed the front and bled the front calipers.
The pedal is a little soft but I have bled the rear which I know there's air in the system, and afterward if there is still a soft pedal up top then I will adjust the brake boost push rod. Even as it sits currently it brake way better than it did before my broke my bias valve.

So next few days I will be changing the rear lines and re-bleed the system. Then I will change my Cam Tower and gaskets/seals and fix a leaking driver side balance shaft seals/o-ring.

Well replaced my cam tower gasket and rear gasket today. Slightly dissappointed as I wanted to install my polished housing but the cam 12pt bolt stripped badly and I didn't have a drill available. So I put it back together and I'll try again in the summer. Also found my timing was off, luckily it was retarded. I was only seeing 12hg in vac at 1k now I've got it about 19hg and idle vibration is way down now so huge improvement. Luckily it seems nothing was bent.

If something was bent, you'd know about it.
You should do a full turn with the engine off by hand (with a ratchet) to make sure everything is TDC and all the timing marks are aligned. less risk of damage

Well nothing new to update on the car but I might be getting a 68 Ford Torino GT and if I do the 951 maybe going up for sale in the next few months. So if someone would be interested it would be nice to have a rennlister buy her and finish what I didn't. I would be looking for roughly 5k with everything if not I may lower the price if the saratoga top and garret turbo are removed for stock items. I've always wanted an old muscle car and the parts are more affordable to keep her running than the porsche but the 951 will always be my favorite car.
