That stock master lists as 1" bore so a 1" bore '67 Mustang drum/drum master would be a good choice.

Not sure if the bolt spacing is exact; but should be close. Not much to elongate the holes if needed.

Pushrod may need some tuning.

Since it is a hanging set-up it should be good; but be sure to see if there is pedal on each single side (simulate a failure) when bleeding; otherwise no safer than the original.
