Re: A thread for Hydroboost (not Hydravac) questions

Like I said in your thread. I appreciate the effort but this was unnecessary. I only asked the question in your thread because the topic had been directed to hydroboost a few posts ahead of mine. Thanks for your contribution to my question

In relation to my truck. I'm running a 14 bolt ff rear w/drums and an 8 lug 3/4 ten bolt front. Both with new brake parts. My pedal is pretty stiff and seems to have little assist. The vacuum source is the big port at the back of my 600 cfm edelbrock carb and has plenty of vacuum present. I got the booster/proportioning valve/master cylinder set up that was recommended for disk/drum. The pedal has never felt like it had much assist. Although the pedal feel in my other truck takes some getting used to, it stops that fat pig pretty well. If I had to stop the '57 in a hurry id be in trouble.
