Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Got the hydroboost squared away...my original plan was to use a 3/4" spacer between firewall plate and the hydroboost....i was trying to keep it as compact as possible.. ..there was never any way that would work...the IH brake pedal is very close to the firewall and the hydro has a long snout on it...I tried several ideas but finally gave in and made a 2in thick aluminum spacer...so that worked....I also got the flex lines and such installed....no moonshine still coils in the brake lines..(there you go Doug)....had the option of running dual front lines from the proportioning valve to each front wheel...or plug one port and run a single line down and T it on the frame...I went with option 2......
to cold to do much so it can wait till later....
now to get the hoses for the hydro...plan is to use -6an stainless flex and build my own.....gotta figure out what size metric to -an fitting I need....
painted the master cylinder with Eastwood master cylinder paint...supposed to be resistant to brake fluid...so we'll see...
