I seem to recall someone here reported that they used the power brake 
booster/master cylinder setup based on an all-drum late 60's B body and 
put it on their all drum '62 to 65 B body. Has to be an all drum car, as 
yours is all-drums.

So, if that's right:

* Pretend you have a 1967-up all drum brake Plymouth 'B'
* Buy a new Master Cylinder/Booster for that car, say a 1968 Belvedere
* Get a 1967-up brake junction block (tee) from a all-drum brake Mopar 
in a junkyard. 
* Buy new pre-bent brake lines or make your own if you know how.

Sound right, all? 

By the way, does anyone reproduce the (tee) junction block?

Other thoughts: 
Rich Hwang sells some master cylinder adapters to bolt the late model 
2-bolt aluminum master cylinders (late 70's-up). 
http://www.ornocar.com/hwang.html has some pictures. Some other vendors 
(Mopar Performance?) have versons of this adapter too.
Don't know if these are meant for a disc conversion swap.

Prior Remanufacturing sells remanufactured power brake boosters. (Prior 
is listed on
http://1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/restore2003.html).
