Re: Manual to power brakes on 1961 Apache

I was able to get my brakes working. Thanks for all your replies. Brainstorming and previous experience is always helpful. It turns out in my case that the master was not pushing enough fluid as captain fab pointed out. I had to swap to a 2500 silverado master, which is meant for disc/disc application and i also had to change the booster because the master would not mate to the booster I was using. For a booster I used a vacuum type booster out of 2004 tahoe. I did not use the booster out of the silverado because it was a hydro booster, didnt want to add more hoses in the compartment and change the power steering pump.
