Its my feeling that if you can install the dual master cylinder on any old car that it should be done for saftey reasons and for the car well being. If the brakes fail another old car may well be damaged at the least and the possibilty of person being hurt is reason enough in to change to dual master cylinder.
In your case of a 66 Chevelle all you need is to get a 67 master cylinder. You could adapt the lines or replace all the steel lines with new ones from a 67 which are easy to obtain pre formed ready made. The lines on your car if 10 years old could be replaced lines can rust in that time. I would consider the change to be saftey issue and if you change the master cylinder and lines you will have the peace of mind knowing the system is new and as safe as you can make it.
