your hydro boost

Madgyver

How are you getting your hydro boost to work I see you mounted to the right of the steering column. How were you able to do this and work the linkage to the brake pedal?

2bad, you always notice the paint.... ;)


blackjack, I know you're working on your hydro install, it's only obvious you would catch this one.


I know alot of you will be interested in this......

It's the Astro hydroboost unit and bracket with a 77-82 Corvette disc/disc master cylinder.
It's the same MC that the vendors sell.

He made a bellcrank for it. Is this the one the 435 is going in? If so then you didn't use the clutch mounting point however that might be an idea for some. It would require changing the brake pedal bends to be opposite of how they normally would be.

Other than the unorthadox placement of the booster, the passenger vent closed up, and the mysterious rag.... I noticed that you somehow managed to paint the backside of your dash but missed the fenders/hood.

Spill the beans about that booster!

The passenger vent isn't closed up. (Or at least there is no way to know from this pic if it is or not) The vent intake tube isn't installed which runs down through the hole in the passenger side of the cowl and down to the passenger kick panel. (Without seeing the kick panel there is no way to know) I plan to remove my vent tube since I see no reason that it really needs to be there. I have a different plan for that area over the cowl instead.

OK Mad, I must know more
I like the looks of that bracket.
Seems it may even work in the stock location.
Not sure if I wanna lose my vent yet or not......
