Re: Why not drill the fire wall for brake booster?

In my opinion the two biggest reasons for not drilling holes for just any booster is 1) the chances of the holes coming out on the inside on the edge of one of the formed braces or another not so convenient spot. 2) Using my booster bracket retains the factory mounting locations thus providing a solid and secure connection between the booster/master and the pedal assembly, just as GM designed it.

Personally I can not stand the looks of the '67-'72 booster brackets. The '73-'87 boosters still sit too far from the firewall for my liking. Plus the brackets look entirely out of place unless they are trimmed down. But to each his own. Some people prefer to use the '73-'87 boosters or some other they have acquired for cheap.
