I have a 1962 Nova convertible that has the power brakes and steering and the original "192". Should be close enough that I could help. Send me a PM and let's talk.

Note that the standard brake push rod is different from the power brake. Also there were two different power brake units used. A Bendix and a Moraine, each had their own push rod. The shop manual makes no mention of adjusting the push rod.
