Its probably cheaper to buy an aftermarket kit to put a dual master and booster where the stock master is
Thanks. Have been considering this resolution. Problem is with frame mounted master cylinder, if I mount the vacuum booster combo, I'd either have to convert to automatic transmission, or convert manual clutch to hydraulic clutch, which I haven't even begun to research.
Right now trying to find an acceptable Hydrovac, even if I can find a rebuild kit.
But, again that's what makes groups like this great. Thanks for the suggestion.
