? Clearance between MC and inner fender 76/77 PB???

[72Sport]

I would greatly appreciate a measurement if someone has time. I am about to change boosters on a stock 76/77 angle bracket. How much clearance between the bottom of the master cylinder and the top of the inner fender? I am currently using a Duff bracket and I want to change to a stock 76 angle bracket. Thanks in advance for your help.

I have 3/4" under the vacumm unit and about a tight 1 1/2 under the MC

(wood is 1x (~3/4"))

Do you know that a 76-77 inner fender is bent there from the factory?

My 72 inner fender was bent by the current owner . I had an old Tom's bracket etc on it before which required a little change in contour of the inner fender for the booster. I have seen pictures of the aftermarket inner fenders. Thanks for the info and pictures.

76-77 inners are tweaked from the factory. To get a stock set-yp to fit the others with no inner mods, undo the 2 bottom booster to bracket bolts and pu a washer inbetween. It will angle just enough to clear with no ill effects on the mounting. I have this on 2 74's.

Here is a picture off of my web pages. I just cut a diamond shape out of the wheel house and turned it upside down and welded it back in.

That's slick!

That looks fantastic. When are you moving West? My inner fender needs a lot of fixing.

The reason for the post was I am about to install a Mustang Hydroboost on a stock bracket. I bought a Duff bracket and had clearance problems between the MC and hood and Duff hood shocks. I have it installed and everything is fine and works great. Clearance is great everywhere. Since I have too much time on my hands I wanted to install a later model Mustang hydroboost that has lines that stick up too far to clear the hood. This will give me an idea how much I can move the booster down and have the lines clear the hood. Here is a picture of the 98 booster on a Duff bracket.

Thanks for all the replies.
