'95 Chevy Astro van hydroboost unit with '78 Corvette 1 1/8" 4 wheel disc MC. MC plumbed to 4 whl disc brake proportioning/combination valve. Homemade 3/16" plate attaches hydroboost unit to firewall, used existing brake booster mounting holes if I ever want to revert back to vacuum brakes. MC outlet ports plumbed with #3 stainless flex lines, hydroboost unit uses Aeroquip #1447 port adapter to plumb factory '75 T-bird PS pressure hose from Saginaw PS pump and #1446 port adapter to plumb output from hydroboost to quick ratio steering gear. Used Aeroquip FC300-6 hose and reuseable 90' fittings to build output hose.
