+1 on the hydro boost brakes. I idle at about 10 in of vac with my cam. Stopping power wasnt the best with vac brakes. Much better now.

Is it really THAT simple? I didnt think it was? There isnt to my knowledge a one stop shop to get all the parts needed and the parts for hydro are not cheap right? At least $300 or so correct?

I got everything on ebay except the pedal for 175 shipped. that was hydro booster, reservoir, power steering pump and lines. So 200 for my swap. Very worth it IMO.

Ok then, proved me wrong. I probably also missed the "how to" thread as well with all the part numbers in it right?
