hydroboost

Anyone out there running a hydroboost in their truck. I was thinking about switching over to that type of system. Who sells a good one and how do they hook up?

Re: hydroboost

Google 'pro-touring' or 'lateral-g' & look for Hydratech (sp?). They offer hydraboost (sp?) brake systems.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: hydroboost

Pretty easy to install, mine came off a early 90's 3500 chevy the master is off a early corvette that my dad had laying around. I think I have about $75 in it.

Re: hydroboost

Got one too, late-'80s diesel booster with a new MC for a '79 C30, truck stops scarey fast on dry asphalt, haven't had the chance to try it on snow yet but I'd imagine it'll be lotsa fun - think manual brakes response and pedal feel, only times stronger.
