sorry for the delay in getting back to you, it's been a busy past couple of months. Our break kit is the "prototype" for Baers Pro 14+ Brake Package with 6S six piston calipers up front, and now we have the new 4 piston T4's out back, which by the way are bad ass!! As far as booster set up this is what I have:
- Early Classic Dual Diaphram Booster with an 1 1/8" Master.
- Use a Disc/Disc Prop valve ( basically a dist. block - no bias metering)
- Baer kit comes with an adjustable prop valve for the REAR brakes +$50
- In line tube - Stainless Brake kit works just fine for everything, I had to make the rear axle line from scratch, but it's pretty simple.
- USE DOT 3 brake fluid only
If anyone is interested please let me know, I am a Baer Brakes Dist, and I can do some really nice pricing for 67-72 Truck members. Keep in mind they take 6-8 weeks on average to get, they build them to order per application.
Example of stopping times with this kit:
2010 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 stops from 60mph - ZERO in 108 ft
1969 Chevrolet C-10 "PHILLIPS 69" stops from 60mph - ZERO in 71 ft
no BS I have it on video go to you tube and type in PCHRODS in the search and look for it in our videos, it's ridiculous!!
