Re: Which firewall brake bracket to use?

Sometimes the ones under the floor create clearance issues with exhaust and such, and are harder to service. I like them on the firewall for ease, but mine is not going to be a show truck. That being said I looked at the CPP unit and built one myself based on careful measurements and pictures. I had a booster from a 97 TA lying around and used it but you can get tiny ones from the junkyard (look at imports!) or new ones from street rod parts suppliers for cheap. Just be mindfull of what brakes you have. Try not to use a master cylinder for 4 wheel discs if you have drums on the rear or vice versa. If you don't weld, the CPP may be the only choice.
