Re: New brake booster size ?

Well I decided to go with the ebay purchase and get the 8" dual diaphram booster with new proportioning valve. Bled the brakes and took it for a cruise last night. What a difference in braking performance. I measured vacuum to booster. In park idling, vacuum is 15.8" W.C. In gear idling its 18.2" W.C. The brake pedal is so much better, way more assist. Now to replacing the rear drums, shoes and wheel cylinders this weekend!
