I'd like a aluminum one with plastic resovior, for a hi-perf. look. Anyone ever done this? What booster did you use with it? Any mounting adaption problems?

You should be able to verify the cylinder bore through your local parts house but my bet is a 88-up truck thru 91 burb mstr.cyl would be close in bore size & interchangability. For 4-wheel discs try a 81 trans-am or cadillac. If you find one that works let us know.

I'm planning on using one off a mid-80's S-10 blazer. It is aluminum, with a plastic reservoir. I'm not going to use a booster, so it should bolt right up. Some people will say it's too small for the big truck brakes, but a friend of mine has one off a Fiero on his '58 Nomad (with Chevelle calipers up front) and he says it stops just fine. If it ain't enough, i could always get one off a mid to late 80's chevy 1/2 ton truck. I think it'll work okay though.
