'67-'72 Power Brake Booster Bracket With Hydraulic Clutch Conversion

[Captainfab]

I have no idea if it could be made to retrofit into a square body. No I do not make a hydraulic clutch conversion fro the squarebodies. I see really no need to when all you need are the factory components from a '84-'91 squarebody, which came from the factory with hydraulic clutches.

Captain,
I'm a dealer for Wilwood so I don't need the master. I also have started my hydro boost swap and mine is bolted directly to the firewall so can I still order the brackets kit and associated pieces for just the hydro conversion in bare steel?

Thanks,
GT

[Captainfab]

Are you wanting just the linkage, or do you also want the booster bracket without the booster mounts?

Figured I would add some photos of the mock-up I just completed. For those considering this kit, I will say it makes life pretty simple..

I started first by simply installing the brackets to get an idea of how it will look, and to ensure I had nothing interfering both inside and outside the firewall.


Then I marked and drilled the two mounting holes and inserted hardware to just to make sure the hole saw would not move the bracket around while drilling the center hole.




Things look good at this point, now onto adding the master cylinder and linkage

While this was not the final assembly, its obvious how well this went together. Once I get a bit farther in my project, it will all go back in for the final time.

Now understanding no two of these trucks are identical, (and I am a bit anal), I shaved a few thousands off the standoff to provide perfect alignment.


Last step was to ensure the the rod was level, mark the clutch pedal and drill the mounting hole..


Thanks,
Drew

Thanks for posting these pics Drew

You must have had this for a little while. The pivot block has been updated a few months back. About how much did you trim off of the standoff? If I know about these things, I can make changes on future orders that are built and shipped out.

Yeah, my poor project has been on the back burner for awhile. Like a couple years..
I ended up taking a 16th of an inch off which was not absolutely necessary but did bring it into perfect alignment.

Thanks again for a nice product.

Interested in a complete setup for my 68 K10 with swapped front discs and power brakes. I'm swapping the 465 for a nv4500. I'm looking at the powder coated kit. Thanks

I really wanna try this in my 78. Can somebody get me a measurement from where the linkage mounts to the pedal to the fire wall. If it’s the same length I will buy one and hopefully it will work

[Captainfab]

I replied to your email.

How much for just the master bracket? I already have power brakes.

[Captainfab]

The only other option other than the entire booster bracket, is for deleting the booster mounts from the base plate. That reduces the cost $25.00. I will need to know what you are using for a clutch slave cylinder or hydraulic release bearing as well whether you have a '67-'68 or a '69-'72. They are different.

What is everyone using for a slave on these swaps? Pulling the 465 for a nv4500.

GM CaptainFab. I hope all is well. I would like order your Hydraulic clutch kit for my LY6/TR6060 swap. I’m interested in the flat clutch bracket. I’ll wait for your pm. Thanks in advance, clark.

[Captainfab]

Pm sent. I forgot to ask what year your truck is. The '67-'68 are different than the '69-'72's

Can you set me up with an uncoated manual brake setup? And do you have clutch slaves available as well? Or recommendations on which one to go with? 70 C10 SBC with a TEX T101 (T10 based).

[Captainfab]

PM sent. No I do not do anything with clutch slave cylinders. I supply the proper clutch master for the slave cylinder/hydraulic release bearing being used.

Due to an increase in the cost of having my parts laser cut, I have been forced to raise my prices. I'm not making any more money, just trying to stay in business with these increases in my costs. Thanks for understanding.
