What is the reasoning behind that hydroboost? The factory power booster doesn't work with your wilwood master cylinder? I was planning on some big brakes myself, and rather than get the wilwood master cylinder I was going to get a bigger mopar one, to retain my factory brake booster. That hydroboost looked expensive.

Used parts sucks, right? :wink: I wish I could afford stuff like that myself... :evil: Or is it all about to focusing (financially) on the right things... :twisted:

Couple fresh pics. Still needs electrical work especially with engine (fuel injected as someone might have guessed when I mentioned fuel rails and new intake), interior parts (have redone seats in storage), some nice wheels to fit large disc brakes etc. etc. etc.

Also notice classic, almost NOS, front tires from early 80's. Kelly Super Charger bias ply on left, Goodyear Polyglas GT on right. It's going to handle soooo well! Now all I need is some equally old Firestones for back and start collecting trophies from shows. :mrgreen:
