I can get the booster and master cyl, but no one has the high pressure lines to convert the 87 to hydroboost. I went to Advance and Autozone here in town. Anyone else having trouble getting these lines? I'm thinking of getting this and putt it inline as well, so maybe I just needt to have some fabbed up? What size fitting so I need to go to the pump and the gear for the two lines?

It's these that are no longer available by the suppliers from what I was told, they don't know when they'll get more. I'm just going to have a local shop make them since I want to run a small inline cooler anyways.
 
I just called my local autozone and asked them about this. They said the supplier is out of stock. They are still making them just out of stock. They said it should just be a few days until they are available again. Hopefully the guy new what he was talking about.

The autozone guy I was talking to seemed to have difficulty even using the system to let me order the one hose they had, so after 30 minutes I just took my money and left to go find a real shop that makes hyd hoses.
 
i got all of mine from advance. i went in and ordered it, and had everything the next day. i did my switch about a month and a half ago.
