I don't think dual master cylinders were standard equipment yet in 1965.

Yes there was a dual master for drums front and rear in 1966 or 67 chevelles.
Thing is I think it only came on power brakes, I could be wrong.
I also think they came with bigger brake lines????

if you want to do a dual upgrade with all 4 stock drum brakes.  Buy a master cyl for a 1967 chevelle(must be the chevelle one not beaumont)  it will fit right onto your 65.   Then get the combination valve for the same 1967 chevelle(or source a used original prefered).   you will hve to reconfigure the steel lines, and the main line that runs to the back will need to be changed from the 3/16 up to a 1/4 steel line.

I have done this complete conversion on at least 4 of my 64/65 beaumonts, and it is the greatest thing for safety ,  and it still appears as stock as possible.

this is all for stock manual drum brakes, but will work with stock PB as well.

Do not use any disc brake parts if you are sticking to all 4 drums. Use 67 drum brake stuff only. You are looking for a 67 combination valve. Not sure if reproduced or you might have to find an original.

I believe I have a 67 valve if you are still looking for one-maybe a master cylinder as well-restored and rebuilt
