There are some good priced sets on ebay included booster, m/c and prop valve.

I'm not sure about '64, I think you can go with stock parts from a '69-72 BBody. I was looking into this just before I sold my '65. BUT...by the time you find that stuff, and get it all into working order, you probably better off with one of the after market kit's. $$$ will probably be even.
