Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket

Sorry, I finding this thread late, but your bracket looks so simple and slick. Why did GM make that crazy offset bracket with the linkage thingy on the factory booster setup? Were they trying to get room for V8 engine clearance or something? This looks like it will work great with my 6 cyl.

Please educate me on this point.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket

I don't know the exact reason behind the angled mount, but I would say it was likely for clearance for the I6 air cleaner assembly. The trucks in the '67-'72 era with the I6's and power brakes, used an offset air cleaner. If you use this booster bracket in a truck with an I6, you can not use a centered stock style air cleaner. There is plenty of room for a straight mounted booster and a big block in these trucks.
