BBC's with power brakes - pics anyone?

Hello,

My truck did not originally have P/B or a big block- and now it has both! The previous owner installed a brake booster out of god knows what and it seems to be much larger and mounted differently than stock.

I originally used 73-87 SBC towers that I modified to mount the BBC, but I wasnt happy with the results (motor sat too high). It now has correct towers and mounts, but it hasnt changed much in relation to the booster

Sorry, this is the best pic I have at the moment


I dug this hydoboost setup out of a junkyard, but I have all sorts of modification to do in order to make the brackets, etc work. I would also need to have it rebuilt/refurbished.



The motor has still not been fired and im going to pull it this weekend to break it in on the dyno.

Would it be cheaper/easier to buy the correct booster? Can I see some pics of yours?
