As long as the engine's running it does.

Seriously though luvbowties... This was the booster supplied by CPP in their '63 C10 disc brake conversion kit. I just removed the supplied booster mounting bracket.

That's great. It's a neat-looking installation and I love the smaller diameter. Sadly some earlier, maybe 1-stagers(?), failed to produce power for a long enough period when applied, esp. with a cammed up engine.
