I have the same setup on my '69. The parking brake takes a bit of experimentation, but once it's all in it's a great setup.

Issues were very minor.
Here's a link to my resto thread, see page 8 for pictures of the brake install. I used Wilwood's universal (Lokar based) rear parking brake cable kit. I modified their cable bracket/clamp assembly to work, connected everything in the stock location. Cables are then cut to fit.
It just took a little time to dial it in with the foot parking brake is all. It will hold the car in a parked position no problem now.

Talk to Bill over at Reilly Motorsports (R.M.S.). He is a Wilwood & Hydroboost distributor, & specializes in Mopars.
