    I thought of going with a hydro-boost unit when the vacume-power brakes stopped working due to a larger cam (couple of engines ago).

    I just changed to manual brakes. Made things much cleaner and less to worry about under the hood.

    I have factory disk brakes up front and drum brakes on the 12-bolt.

    stops very well.

    Once I have everything tuned and working well we are looking to go to 8 psi.

    Mike,
    I do not think I would do the hydroboost again. It is just a lot more work than you think to get it installed. I wish I had a no booster car to drive and see how I liked it. Someday we are going to have to get all of the boosted cars together.
