[DeTomaso] Fuel injection system and brakes question

So, if I add this brake system I would either lose the parking brake OR
keep the stock calipers in the back and replace only the front ones ??

>From the reviews: Minor issue; I could have used a written FYI that advised
the need for longer rear cables and new fittings, as I was keeping the old
calipers for use with the parking brake.

   So, if I add this brake system I would either lose the parking brake OR
   keep the stock calipers in the back and replace only the front ones ??
   From the reviews: Minor issue; I could have used a written FYI that
   advised the need for longer rear cables and new fittings, as I was
   keeping the old calipers for use with the parking brake.

     Now that I have a bit of time to try to resurrect my poor '73
     Pantera, I would like to ask for recommendations/sources for the
     following:
     1. Fuel injection system for a '73 Cleveland. Recommended model and
     sources, pitfalls in installation. Is there a write up anywhere from
     someone who did the conversion ?
     2. Brake rebuild kit. Sources, pitfalls ?
     Thanks,
     Konrad
