I have not done the work but I did do the research for my 74. Here is the summary version.

1)New brake lines from Master cylindar to distribution block. Different routing.
2)New Master cylindar New bore size required for PB.
3)Power booster with vacume lines.
4)Mounting of booster is lower on firewall. Need to rework mount.
5)Brake pin connection to pedal is lowered. You get this by turning a bracket on the pedal over. Travel is less with PB. Real tight place to work under dash.

After I got my brakes working well I dropped my thoughts for power brakes. I used the assembly manual and several discussions for my research. Hope this helps. Also not sure this hold for the 69.
