I'm not sure of the part number but it mainly goes by application and just ask for the 7" dual-diaphram booster. I don't think the aluminum master is standard on their application for our truck. It happened to be a good option for my baer setup. I think I paid $320. The firewall brackets they have are custom for our trucks. I didn't use a factory proportioning valve either, so that might be extra $. I only used a wilwood proportioning valve and I purchased that from summit racing.

is the one you got copper or aluminum? The radiator thing has been driving me nuts. i've heard so many stories about what you should and shouldn't use. I need to have mine cleaned out before I can really comfortably use it and i'm not sure if it's just most cost effective to buy a new one. the bad part is a lot of the stock ones for cars w/LS1's in them have a slanted filler neck and whatnot. can't really use them in our trucks.

The radiator is copper, I think that's what they are made of. It's not aluminum. I had just bought a new one prior to installing the LS1, so I didn't want to buy another new one. Since it was still fairly new, I wasn't concerned about crap in it. If you have a really old radiator, I would get a new one just because it's an expensive engine and it's cheap insurance.

thanks for the heads-up.

yeah, i contacted ABS yesterday to ask what your part # was and what applications it can be used with, they still haven't responded (email). i hate it when people don't answer their emails. guess i'll need to call and talk to them once they get in (they're PST, i'm EST)
