Re: hydro boost
Ogre has a Mustang HB / MC setup with a custom bracket fabbed to the frame. He also used Nissan Quest master cylinder parts, combined with Mustang parts, to mount a remote brake reservoir & keep it easy-maintenance / easy install.

Re: hydro boost
I'm looking into the Astro van ones for my truck too as the wrecking yard I frequent usually has a few in it most of the time.
I had a hydro boost on the 77 Chevy 1 ton 4x4 crew cab I had and my wife and I both really liked the feel of the brakes on it.

Re: hydro boost
Astro van HB in a '72 corvette feels nice, too. Stiff pedal but your efforts get rewarded big time.
