Awesome!
I worked on my engine last night to almost midnight.....getting it ready to drop in....
You got any pics?
How did you do your conversion? ..... HB base plate? the rod? .... the lines?
Again... pics?
Great job.
I hope to get mine running in the next week or so.... engine may go in tonight.... :biggrin:
I copied your idea on cutting the hydroboost plate and drilling out holes for the studs on the existing firewall mounting plate. I loved how you did that, and what a piece of cake. 15 min and your done.
The rod I just welded like tinman and yourself. I but welded it then slid a small sleeve over the weld and welded all the way around on both ends. The only change I made here was I used the hydroboost rod end. I did not cut my P/M rod end off. I found a heavy nylon bushing with the same I.D of the brake pedal rod, and close to the same size O.D. just trimmed and installed. Worked great!
I made my lines through Napa. They worked out wonderful. The napa was nice enough to let me take the lines and fittings home so I could lay them out and mark them before they were crimped. Fit up perfect!
I was very pleased with the install. Again it all payed off last night when I got to go out and drive the car. I gaurantee you will be so surprised. I know everyone says that, but it was more than I expected. The rock solid pedal, and stopping distance was great. I could really tell the difference. You will be so happy!
