Re: Please can someone help me im completely lost

OK guys i just got off the phone with Early Classic Enterprises (ECE?)'s awesome tech support and i spoke to Terry. He basically told me what my problem is that i do in fact have the wrong booster setup on there. He said the booster that is on there is for a later 73-87 style truck and if i had an aluminum master on there before then for sure thats it. He says that booster has a shorter throw (basically less movement internally) and therefore doesn't push the master cylinder in far enough for it to build any decent pressure.

Those guys rock, they weren't even trynna sell me their booster at all, he told me to go to a junk yard and find a booster and bracket setup and to make it work however i just don't have the time and patience anymore to do so. So then he suggested i go back and buy the booster from Autozone for $100 then he'll sell me a booster mounting bracket for another $100 and to go and get the CANTILEVER linkeage setup from a older truck since mine is missing. I told him again that i don't wanna go JY route anymore so lastly he suggested his booster would work perfectly and has the threaded input rod like the later style and bracket to mount it to the firewall and is gauranteed to fit.

So i ordered the booster, should be here tomorrow. He said he was out of the 9 inch ones that they usually sell alot of but that he had some 7 inch ones. I asked what the big differences were and just said the 9 inch would have more power but its not a big deal if i have a stock truck with stock wheels and brakes which i do so yea....

ANYWAYS thanks guys. Ill let ya know how it comes out.
