[chevyII]

Anyone know a of a CO. that makes the brake booster and cylinder that mounts sideways under the dash board? I saw them use one on american hot rod,and want to check price and how they turn the pedal motion. Thanks for any help.

Ive seen them used before and the unit(s) I saw used a bell crank mechanism to turn the pedal movement 180 deg. I do know they werent very compact and would take quite a bit of surgery to fit one under the dash of a GN/TR.

I dunno where they were sourced from but Im sure any street rod oriented supplier has them. If a web search doesnt turn up anything Im sure there are companies that have ads in mags like Street Rodder, Kit Car, etc that could help.

Hope some of that helps.
