a new booster is 50.00 and a master cylinder is maby 30.00 at a parts store. all you need from the yard is the pedal, porportioning valve, lines from the master to the valve. then get the tta block from caspers and a 3/8 hose for vacuum. the booster comes with the check valve in it already... probably 100. going this route. i went through 3 yard boosters that were filled with water/brake fluid and finally bought a new one. i gave the last booster fror a core , the master was new so no core charge there .

the pedal is different, too?

 

[mybuick]

yes it is. the hole on the booster pedal hooks on to is lower than the hydroboost pedal hole.

I drilled hole in existing pedal and used bolt with nylox nut. No problems.

You do not need to change the prop valve.

would the pedal happen to be the same as a manual brake Malibu or something like that?
if so, i'm gonna ditch my power brakes altogether and put some 13" Corvette brakes in it setup in a manual configuration like i did in my Nova, and take some weight out of the car without killing the stopping power.
