Power brake bleeding

I have a '66 with a single round 4" master cylinder that I need to bleed the brakes.
Would like to use a Power Bleed system.
Does anyone know what adapter is needed to fit the master cylinder?

I would never use old lifters with a new cam. If I go to the trouble/cost of changing the cam, I always install new lifters also. :cheers:

Check the "Z" bar linkage that goes from the frame to the block.
I had problems with one of the welds tearing and then the pedal would not push the clutch fork enough to disengage the clutch.
