Would I be able to use my Bendix brake booster with all 4 11" drums? My Charger came with 11" power front and rear drums, I was thinking of using them for a while, I'm still haven't made a decision of what disc brake kit to buy. If so, would I need a new master cylinder?

That was used on c body wagons which had power drum brakes.  That is also the same booster used with cars that came with factory disc brakes also in 1968-1969. :2thumbs:

The good news is you'll have a good disc brake MC when you decide to go that route. If you can, might as well do it now. Disc brakes in the front is good stuff!  :cheers:
