![]() My question is, two of the units I got have the 'angled' mounting plate, and I need the 'straight' plate. Two are complete with prop valves, one isn't, I think it had ABS and the lines were cut at the ABS computer. Originally they said $50 for the one they had on the shelf, but when I found two more Astro vans out back with complete units I guess I got the 'quantity price'. I just picked up (or I'll pick up the second two tomorrow morning anyway) three complete hydroboost units at my local JY for $100, with them doing the pulling. OK, now I have some hydroboost questions. However, it's great that I can tune the engine again! ![]() The bore of the Ford one is smaller than the GM, but the base looks the same so the GM head I have will go on the Ford base- some day.Īll in all the switch was an ordeal but it's likely my fault in the way I went about it. Old is no problem- however, mine sat for years in the JY and the piston froze, forcing a buff job which may end up with a different booster being necessary. It should help keep the fluid a bit cooler, too. The one I got is for a Honda and is a perfect fit since the original, though a common type, wasn't in stock.Īs I've noted in another thread I will be putting a second nipple in the tank of the pump to ensure the fluid gets back as soon as possible to avoid starvation. When I tightened up the unit I didn't back the brake switch off and crushed it, necessitating the purchase of a new one. I've heard that masters can be bought facing the fender. I used the portioning valve the Scout had and it all seems to work. ![]() The holes for the aluminium master are reversed with the brake lines exiting toward the block, but that's not really a problem as the lines are a ***** any way they face. Now I would drill new holes in the Linc's that line up with the stock Scout ones. The stock fittings have nuts integrated into them and therfore must be reamed and nuts used which can be a pain to do. I used a booster from an 84 Lincoln the linkage was the perfect length, but the bolt pattern is different, so the bottom holes have to be drilled through the fire wall. ![]()
