Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket

Captain, looking to buy one of your power brake booster for my 70 K10 in black powdercoat, but I have a couple of concerns before I pull the trigger. I recently swapped to a disc brake front axle. I bought a booster/master setup from Performance Online (https://www.performanceonline.com/19...ster-Cylinder/), but I don't like the booster bracket. The angle of the bracket is so dramatic that tips the Wilwood master up in front. Not only does it make the fluid level of the master difficult to maintain, but it's also not aesthetically appealing. It does however put the push rod in the proper location on my pedal for me drill a new hole to get the right pedal ratio (4.5:1 for power booster).

I'm hoping that your bracket not only reduces this drastic angle, but will also allow me to connect the pedal rod in the proper location without putting stress on the booster. I'm also somewhat concerned about the overall depth of your bracket and if I'll have a clearance problem with the booster boot at the firewall. Your bracket is not real thick (I think like maybe 2"). This may cause the booster boot to actually go through the firewall. Please provide comments.
